School Reservations and Fee Waivers
Want to learn more about the cultural/human history of Death Valley? Scotty's Castle provides a unique opportunity to learn about one of the more famous characters of the area. The living history program allows students to take a step back in time to 1939, allowing for an understanding of what it took to live in such an extreme desert environment without the technology that exists today. It also provides an opportunity for school groups to incorporate mining history and history of Native Americans in Death Valley to satisfy the class curriculum.
Ranger-led programs on a Death Valley related topic (i.e. desert plant and animal adaptations) can also be developed for your school group if given enough advance notice. Please ask about this when making your reservation.
