Mojave National Preserve spans 1.5 million acres of desert between Interstates 15 and 40, from the singing Kelso Dunes to Joshua tree forests, cinder cones, and the Providence Mountains. The historic Mojave Road, once a wagon route across the desert, still crosses the preserve as a rough four-wheel-drive track.

Climb the Kelso Dunes, explore the bolted-ring trail through the rocks at Hole-in-the-Wall, and tour the Kelso Depot. For a challenge, drive the full length of the old Mojave Road, a rugged multi-day backcountry route.
