There are two main routes that’ll take you from Salt Lake City to Las Vegas — and either one you choose is sure to offer unforgettable memories and epic adventures. While the most direct route takes about five hours and 45 minutes, the longer one is only a little more than seven hours, and both are less than 500 miles long. Depending on the direction you choose, you’ll be able to explore classic southwestern Utah destinations like Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Zion National Park and even Capitol Reef National Park — or, if you go the more remote direction, you’ll pass right by the Bonneville Salt Flats before traveling south through some of the most remote parts of Nevada. (Get ready for some epic stargazing!) Either way, a one-way RV rental is truly the most logical way to do such a trip, since you’ll get to enjoy all the creature comforts the entire time — and you won’t have to worry about saving time to drive back to where you started.
Why Is This Route Popular?
The Salt Lake City to Las Vegas one-way RV rental route is popular because it packs a whole lot of southwestern desert adventure into a relatively short drive. After all, five or seven hours can be done in a single day of driving. Of course, you’ll enjoy the journey far better if you give yourself time to go slowly and explore along the way — and goodness knows there are plenty of incredible opportunities for that exploration. And at the end of the trip, you’ll find yourself under the bright lights and tall buildings of Las Vegas, the perfect counterpoint to such intensely deserted landscapes — and an easy destination to fly out of so you can return home after a one-way RV trip you could pack into a long weekend.
