Getting there and around

From Las Vegas

Take US-95 south, about 110 miles (180 km), roughly two hours.

From Kingman and the Oatman road

The old Route 66 over the Black Mountains through Oatman is slow and winding but one of the best stretches of the road; I-40 is the quick way. See our Route 66 road trip.

Heading west

Barstow is about 2.5 hours west on I-40, across the Mojave. From June to September, drive it early or late in the day.
