Pioneertown is one of the most unique communities in the High Desert. It sits amidst a breathtaking tableau of the craggy mountains and flat-top buttes that make up Pioneertown Mountain Preserve, which offers excellent hiking and exploring options.
Founded right after World War II as a permanent set for filming Western movies and TV shows, Pioneertown today is an attraction in its own right; just walk down Mane Street and imagine Hollywood stars working here. On some days it is possible to watch a gunfight reen- actment provided by realistically costumed actors. The community is perhaps best known today as the home of world-famous Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace, a mecca for food and music enthusiasts.
Pioneertown is located within a short drive of many restaurants, shops, and things to do. The West Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park is 25 minutes away by car, but you’ll also want to enjoy these area highlights:

• The Integratron (25-minute drive) – New age-y healing destination with a sound bath, originally designed by ufologist George Van Tassel with the goal of reversing the aging process.
