Death Valley Dualsport Tour California and Nevada, USA
The ultimate desert adventure. Death Valley on a dual-sport bike is the experience of a lifetime! In late 1849 the first Europeans entered the valley on their way to the California gold fields. Lost and out of food, the groups were forced to endure severe hardships before they could escape and provided the valley with its morbid name. Abandoned machinery are the only remains of the busy mining era of the early 1900s.	Quick links > Tour Details \| Photos \| Dates \| Pricing \| Itinerary

Off-roading at its very best. En route to Death Valley we will ride the Dumont Dunes, some of the tallest dune formations in the US open for off road riding. You will experience rocky narrow canyons, wide open desert riding and the excitement of crossing a dune field like on the Paris Dakar races! In fact, the Red Bull Team is using the area to get prepared for the toughest races on this planet. We will coordinate the technical riding and passages according to your wishes and riding skill level. Please keep in mind that this dual-sport tour is for motorcyclists with off-road experience only! This tour is almost 100% off-road... the only reason we have a license plate on our dirt bikes is because the National Park requires it!

Day 1: Ride from Primm to Tecopa. At 8:30 a.m. we will pick up the rental dual-sport bikes and start our trip by riding through the Mojave NP Clark Mountain area and across the Dumont Dunes. On a good weekend you can find several thousand off-road enthusiasts playing in the dunes!

Day 2: Ride from Tecopa to Death Valley. This day starts at 8:30 a.m. when we load the luggage in the support vehicle and provide you with a detailed route briefing. Next, we'll enter the Death Valley National Park area through abandoned mining roads. We'll zip around Barrel Cactus and Joshua Trees on our way in and out of Death Valley. Echo Canyon and Dante's View are the highlights of the tour.

Day 3: Ride from Death Valley to Primm. Start time at 8:30 a.m. with the same routine of loading the luggage and receiving the morning briefing. This day will be based on the riders' preferences, with a picnic lunch on a dry lake bed, some challenging mountain trails, and open desert riding.

*Our guide recommends adding at least one extra day to explore more of the hidden Death Valley secrets. There is so much history of the gold rush era you can easily spend a week or more riding across some of the most remote areas in the US. Ask us for customized routing based on the number of days you want to ride!
