Scotty’s Castle (Death Valley)

#tesaruonbudget


Scotty’s Castle, located in Death Valley National Park, is currently under restoration but remains an iconic landmark worth seeing from the outside. The Spanish-style architecture against the stark desert backdrop creates a dramatic sight. While interior tours are limited, the surrounding landscapes are free to explore with just the park entry fee. Budget travelers can combine this stop with other Death Valley highlights like Badwater Basin and Mesquite Dunes. Even unfinished, the castle’s quirky history and desert setting make it a fascinating part of a low-cost road trip through the national park.
