Chesler Park is a scenic section of the Needles District which I accessed from the Elephant Hill Trailhead. I decided to combine Chesler Park with Druid Arch for a nice 14-mile hike loop hike through The Needles. The Needles District is a maze of many inter-connected trails, so you have a lot of options when hiking here.
While the whole area is nice, my favorite part was the Joint Trail. These are some long narrow hallways that can require squeezing to get though in some parts. I was here on a beautiful November day in 2011, and only saw about 10 other people on my hike. A very relaxing place.
