This area has been used in literally hundreds of films ranging from the early 1920s right through to modern times and include such films and TV programmes as Westerns, Star Trek, Star Wars, Gladiator - in fact anything that requires rugged scenery, weird and strange rock formations, desert or an alien style landscape. The main road through the hills is gravel but there are many tracks you can take off if you have a 4-wheel drive - which, sadly, we didn't. This did not detract from our visit however and we stopped numerous times to photograph the ever changing scenery and rock formations, all in the valley below the soaring Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains. Somehow words do not really do justice to the area, you need to see it for yourself. Definitely worth visiting.

East access, beauty, and good for walking, hiking, mountain bikes or cars. And they allow camping. The geology alone is worth a look. It appears you need a campfire permit which can be picked up at the local ranger station. The hills sit outside Lone Pine just under the tallest mountain in the Sierra Nevada.

Wonderful, enchanting, took lots of pics. There is an easy little trail upto the arch that the kids will love. Pack lunch and do the drive if you have a high clearance vehicle.

We spent the day looking around the area. After visiting the movie museum and discovering the history of the Alabama hills we went to see them with camera gear loaded. This is a must see if you have any love for western movies and tv shows. From Tom Mix to John Wayne they have filed there.

The combination of desert granite of the Alabama Hills with the immediate views of the High Sierra peaks is just awe-inspiring.

Having grown up with The Lone Ranger and Tonto it was great to see where they filmed a lot of the scenes took me back to the 60's Drive out on Movie road.

I love camping and exploring here! The views of the Sierra Nevada mountains are amazing. It's great for a backpacker, like myself, to be only a couple miles from the Sierra's and yet be able to camp in the desert! Awesome!To my fellow campers: PLEASE bury your feces and throw away your toilet paper!! Do NOT throw it on the ground...just nasty! Also, do not use generators or be noisy! People come here for the quiet and to enjoy nature!

Wander through the old cowboy movie locations and see bunchs of rock formations that you will recognize from old movies. Truly cool for the older folks (like me)

This is a place we want to go back to with our RV. Great views of Mt Whitney with wonderful rock shapes in the foreground. The area has been the set for numerous movies over the past 100 years.

Very scenic area to drive through. A great site for photography. Disneyesque in places, get a map in nearby Lone Pine.

We have visited the Alabama Hills many times and every time we love this place! The best time is the early morning, watching the sun rise on Mt. Whitney. What a sight! Also, there are many places to explore among all those crazy boulders. Even if you just stay in your car, it's worth a visit to this unique and beautiful place where so many movies and commercials are filmed.

In the movies! Check out the film museum and then take the road to the Alabama Hills to recognise the location for countless westerns and even Iron Man! Really interesting rock formations within easy reach of the 395.

This a must see area if you are passing through the area. Great place to photograph Mt. Whitney at sunrise. Fun place to hike and climb on rocks.

there's so much space. during the days this place is quiet and empty enough, at night it becomes an entirely different world and the chances of encountering anyone else is almost non-existent. just pay attention so you don't get lost. not so much hiking as it is climbing and scrambling. but the glow of the mountains in the moonlight is unreal, the silhouettes of the rocks is surreal, and the vast emptiness feels like you're the last person left in the world!
