How far is Las Vegas from California driving?

My friends and I are going to Las Vegas in a few days for a bachelor party and we wanted to do a little road trip out to Southern California while we were in the area. On a map, they seem pretty close. What is the driving distance from Las Vegas to California?

Did someone say bachelor party in Las Vegas? That sounds like a lot of fun! Do you have room for one more?
California is a big state, so drive time is largely dependent on which city you’re visiting. But road-tripping from Las Vegas is quick and easy if you want to visit somewhere like Los Angeles. In that case, driving from Las Vegas to California would be about 270 miles and take approximately four hours and 22 minutes.
The drive between the two cities is scenic if you take Interstate 15. Along this desert route, you’ll pass through San Bernardino and parts of the San Fernando Valley on your way to L.A.
As you prepare to take off, make sure you remember to take breaks while driving and ensure that your vehicle is in tip-top shape. Since you’ll be in remote areas at times, you may want to have an
emergency kit
and a fully charged phone, as well.
Lastly, no matter where you’re driving, make sure you’re covered by great car insurance.
