Ever feel like you need an escape, a journey that’s more than just miles? A road trip on Highway 395 is the perfect remedy. You’ll be amazed at the diversity of landscapes. At first, you’re rolling through the Mojave Desert, with those quirky Joshua trees looking like they’re in the middle of a dance party. Then, you’re staring up at the colossal, snow-capped peaks of the Eastern Sierra and passing through dusty gold rush towns.
While it may not be as popular as California’s Pacific Coast Highway or the Redwood Highway, the 395 is less traveled but it’s certainly not lacking in things to do. It even has its own dedicated “trail.” In 2023, the Eastern Sierra Spirit and Ale Trail was established, which highlights craft breweries and distilleries between Bishop and Bridgeport.
