There are a few different points of interest inside the national park. They are pretty easily accessed by car, so it's a nice easy road trip to drive to various points and take a short walk at each one. One of our favorites is HaMinsara ("The Prism" or "The Carpentry Shop" in English). You can park at each point or walk between them on fairly flat marked trails. For example it's only about 1km by trail between HaMinsara and the colorful sand park, where you'll find piles of (naturally) different colored sand brought together in one place from different parts of the desert. Kids often bring clear bottles and fill them up with layers of different colors, which can be a fun activity for young children (although Timna's version is nicer).
