Los Angeles can be great but sometimes we all need to get away from the city hustle. With summer here, Penske Buick GMC of Cerritos would like to highlight some summer destinations worthy of road trips.
Ojai
83 miles northwest of LA in the Topatopa Mountains, you’ll find Ojai, a small town getaway with many rustic hotels and hiking opportunities. Chain stores are actually forbidden in this community in order to encourage small business development. It’s a scenic and artistic small town getaway.
Joshua Tree
128 miles southeast of LA resides Joshua Tree National Park; it’s a scenic desert, home to Pioneer Town, which is an old Hollywood lot used to shoot westerns. The park covers 790,636 acres and boasts hiking and scenic desert views.
Big Sur
295 miles northwest of LA you’ll find the seaside cliffs of the Santa Lucia Mountains and giant redwood trees that create such scenic views that words don’t do it justice. This is a most see for nature lovers.
Big Bear Lake
97 miles east of LA resides a ski escape in winter and a water sports haven in the summer – a location known as Big Bear Lake. Plenty of hotel and cabin options make for a perfect weekend getaway in all seasons.
Temecula
87 miles southeast of LA road trippers will find 30 vineyards – most offer wine tasting – and a vibrant landscape of scenery. Depending on the time of year, visitors will also find Temecula Valley International Film Festival, championship golf courses and many different resort accommodations.
