Free Camping Near Joshua Tree National Park
Joshua Tree BLM North is a large, flat expanse of land where you can camp for free and be close to Joshua Tree National Park. Administered by the BLM, there’s not much to it, just a lot of flat land. It gets very windy here, and dust gets everywhere. The ground is pretty solid when its dry, but during heavy rain, it almost turns into a lake bed. You can camp here up to 14 days, though the BLM rarely enforces it here.
