Death Valley, China Ranch

China Date Ranch is a Historic Site that lies near Tecopa, California or just to the southern region of Death Valley. This is a true desert oasis. Just about any vehicle can make it to this location. Do not let the dirt road fool you, it is easy to travel on in most cases.

A fun historical fact is that these huge date palms were planted by seed in the 1920’s

I find myself visiting the date ranch almost every time I visit Tecopa, California. I like to stop and buy some of their famous date bread, date cookies and date shakes.

Take a walk along the creek to the slot canyon or take a look at the agave garden and all the neat tools used to pick dates from the date palms.

This is a must visit!

My wife and I went to the ranch and enjoyed the hike in the canyon nearby. Sooooh beautiful! The date cookies and cake are irresistible.
