Texas to Oregon

We are planning a trip from Houston Tx to Oakland Oregon in a couple of weeks. Any advice on routes or attractions to visit along the way as well as places to stay will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  • Some ideas...
    Monahan Sand Dune State Park, West Texas
    Carlsbad Caverns, NM
    Santa Fe, NM
    Moab, UT (river rafting and Arches National Park)
  • It's hard to give you a route not knowing how much time you have, what kind of RV, what your interests are, etc. We've traveled there often and we always choose a different route on secondary roads.

    Purchase the 'Mountain Directory for Truckers and RVers' if you're concerned about mountains. There are plenty of public parks along the way and also RV parks.
  • Many different routes available. Out west, do you want to see the coast? The Sierra's? The Cascades? If your route takes you through Reno, NV, and you want a direct route from there,I would then take 395,36,44,89 and finally I-5.
  • I10 to the 101 head north
    Ventura Beach RV Resort
    Jalama Beach County Park
    Moro Dunes RV Park
    Montana De Oro State Park,
    Moss Landing KOA it is next to the docks if you want to go whale watching
