Chapter 11 Recreation
Mojave Desert is a great place to experience the outdoors and to enjoy many recreational activities. Many people visit Mojave just to see the wide open spaces and to get away from it all. I have listed many activities for recreation.
Off-Highway Vehicles – Certain areas are designated for off roading
Desert Photography – Many people come to Mojave to photograph the beautiful and changing environment.
Rock and Treasure hunting – Minerals and geodes attract the many visitors who enjoy look for rocks or “gold.”
Water Sports – Even though this is a desert there are rivers and streams for fishing.
Mojave is also a great place for rafting, boating and swimming where there are dams or lakes.
Wildlife Viewing – Mojave Desert has over 450 wildlife refuges which allow visitors to see animals in their natural environment. Also, of interest are the wild flowers of this region.
