Arrive before 8am to beat crowds
Can get muddy after rain, bring protection
A flat-topped volcanic plateau erupts with yellow goldfields, purple lupine, and orange poppies mid-March through April. Hike the Phantom Falls Trail for waterfalls framed by wildflowers, plus sweeping views across the bloom-covered tableland.
