    So much fun running down into the crater. Much less fun coming back up.

    Great short hike around a spectacular geological feature. We did this hike first thing in the morning, but I would start around 10 o'clock: the sun will be higher in the sky and it will illuminate the entire crater.

    Review by Bill & Teresa Kettler
    This are is worthy of exploration. The trail to the bottom of Ubehebe Crater is a steep walk through loose rubble. However, a very steep climb out can be exhausting, especially for those out of shape or with children (not reccommended). A easier 0.5-mile trail can be followed along the rim of Ubehebe to Little Hebe Crater.

    Park your car at Ubehebe Crater parking and hike to the Little Hebe crater just 0.5 miles away. Gets windy but otherwise quite pleasant even in summer since you're at elevation of about 2,000 feet.
