We packed up and left Death Valley the next day. Before leaving, we stopped to visit Panamint Springs and Darwin Falls.
There is an unmarked gravel road leading to the trailhead. It was passable in a sedan. We left our RV at Panamint Springs, which comprises a restaurant, a motel and a camping site. If parking is tight, there is a parking area just after the turnoff for Hwy 178 as you head west.
Darwin Falls Details:
Out & back
Distance: 2 mi
Elevation: 450 feet
Time: 1-1.5 hours
Ease: easy
Parking: yes--dirt lot at trailhead.
From the trailhead, follow the wide path.
You'll see the pipe that brings water to Panamint Springs.
Wildflowers in late January.
To reach Darwin Falls, you'll need to do a Little Rock scrambling and a few stream crossings but they weren't bad.
