Description
In the extreme northeast of California in a thinly populated region seldom visited by tourists, extends the Lava Beds National Monument, founded in 1925 and covering an area of 72sq.miles/186sq.km, with strange lava formations dating back thousands of years. It is only a few miles from the Oregon border and lies between the CA 139 and U.S. 97. Barren heaps of ash, some more than 330ft/100m high with steep craters, leave their mark on the landscape.

Tips
There is a camp-site in Indian Wells but no filling station inside the park. The Visitor Center is on the south side. Those wishing to explore the caves can do so with the aid of a plan. Torches are available from the Visitor Center free of charge and safety helmets can be hired for a small fee. There are slide shows in the Center during the Summer months.
