Here are the top 5 epic summer road trips to take with your MoonLander, along with tips to make the most of your adventure.
1. Zion National Park & Moab, Utah Start your journey in the surreal landscapes of Zion National Park. With towering red cliffs, slot canyons, and lush trails, Zion is a visual feast. Park your MoonLander at one of the scenic campgrounds like Watchman or South Campground for easy access to hikes like Angels Landing and The Narrows.
Then, head east to Moab, home to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. The MoonLander’s aerodynamic build makes the desert heat more manageable, and its insulated interior provides relief from the scorching sun. The removable bed panels are perfect for storing climbing gear, hiking boots, and even a mountain bike.
2. The Rocky Mountains, Colorado From Estes Park to Durango, the Colorado Rockies offer breathtaking scenery and a cooler summer climate. Travel along the Million Dollar Highway (U.S. Route 550) for winding roads and panoramic views.
Camp at elevation for crisp mornings and cozy nights. Thanks to the MoonLander’s roomy interior and easy-to-reconfigure setup, you can shift between sleeping mode and living space with ease. Use the extra storage space to bring your fishing gear, inflatable paddleboard, or even your favorite coffee kit for sunrise brews.
3. The Oregon Coast Drive down U.S. Highway 101 and experience the magic of Oregon’s rugged coastline. From Cannon Beach to Brookings, you’ll find miles of cliffs, tide pools, and charming coastal towns.
The MoonLander shines in these settings with its compact size and quick setup. Pull off for a beachside nap or overnight stay without the hassle of a tent. Use the removable panels to stow wet gear and sandy shoes, and enjoy dinners with an ocean view from your cozy camper.
4. Northern California Redwoods Visit the ancient forests of Northern California where you can park under towering redwoods and hike through ethereal trails. Places like Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park offer camping nestled in dense groves.
