If you're driving from Salt Lake City, you'll see a lot of desert and salt flats before you actually reach the International Speedway. It's near Wendover, on the Utah-Nevada border. The Bonneville Salt Flats International Speedway is a little less than two hours drive from Salt Lake City, Utah. Here's what you need to know to make the most of your visit to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. The entrance to the Bonneville Salt Flats International Speedway is less than five miles from Interstate 80, just outside Wendover, Utah. The Bonneville Salt Flats are open to the public and there is no entry fee. There aren't many places in the world like it. Many land speed world records have been set here. The Bonneville Salt Flats are an exceptionally flat, hard and dry area in Utah's west desert. We recently drove through this area on our Ely, Nevada trip and I insisted that we save time for the Salt Flats on our way home. Driving on the Bonneville Salt Flats has been on my wish list for a few years.
