Day trips from Lake Havasu City
If you are determined to get out of Lake Havasu and go to a big city for a day, you could make a day trip out of going to Phoenix or Las Vegas. Phoenix is the capital of Arizona and, as the state’s largest city, you could definitely fill a day there, but it is about a 3-hour drive each way. Las Vegas is about the same distance. A more natural option would be to take a 1.5 hour-drive to the Mojave National Preserve in Kelso, California. It is located in the Mojave Desert and run by the National Parks Service and is a beautiful park where you can experience the southwestern United States desert landscape. Another good option would be to take a 2-hour drive to Joshua Tree National Park, which is one of the best in the country and is known for its interesting, twisted Joshua trees.
