Unique Road Trips – UFO Locations
Extraterrestrial Highway (Route 375), Nevada
The stretch of road in Nevada—passing none other than the infamous Area 51—has been officially dubbed the Extraterrestrial Highway. It’s not just because of this secretive base that is said to harbor Roswell’s secrets, but also because many have claimed to witness sightings along this desert highway.

The centerpiece is Little A’Le’Inn, an alien-themed motel, restaurant, souvenir shop and UFO mecca in Rachel, where many enthusiasts swap stories and firsthand accounts. Area 51 is off-limits, but venture along on your motorhome rental onto Mail Box Road for a closer glimpse of its vast property. Another fun little stop: the Alien Research Center near the highway’s southern terminus.

Broad Haven Triangle, Wales
In the 70s, an area in the Welsh village of Broad Haven became a den of UFO activities. A number of residents, including a group of kids, witnessed an upside-down saucer and humanoid creatures as well as a cigar-shaped craft. From then on, it became known as Broad Haven Triangle and so, a mecca for UFO enthusiasts.
At the center of the Broad Haven Triangle are a former hotel and private property. But you might be able to walk around the area to see if you can witness an unexplained event. If you’re in an RV rental, there are campsites for a bit of glamping, which can also serve your purpose if you want to hunt for UFOs!
Kingman, Arizona and Roswell, New Mexico
Why not continue east to Arizona and New Mexico? They are, after all, known hotbeds of UFO activities. From Crystal Springs, drive your RV rental to Kingman, Arizona, the site of multiple UFO incidents and a crash in the 50s. You might even hop on a private two-hour UFO tour with historian Harry Drew.
