Get in
Most people will enter via US Highway 93. The Arizona Peace Trail, a 675-mile long looped OHV trail enters and exists Wikieup along Chicken Springs Road.
Get around
You'll have no problems getting around, as it's a small settlement. Crossing 93 on foot can be dangerous. There are sidewalks closer to Chicken Springs, and lower dirt paths along the highway.

Do
Wikieup has many trails for exploring by Jeep or horseback. Fascinating rocks can be found in the hills, and even ice age fossils.
Buy
Gas. It's 58 miles north to the next town (Kingman) and 77 miles south to Wickenburg. And if there's one thing you don't want to do in the Arizona desert, it's run out of gas.
Eat
Eat Los Alamitos Mexican
Good Mexican food in Mohave County. The prices are reasonable for Wikieup and the food is better than anything else in town. Gas station also has a fenced dog run.
Eat Dazzos
Serves alright Chicago-style pizza, hot dogs (no catchup on a poppyseed bun) and greasy french fries, which can be worth the stop. The walls are covered in metal meme signs about hating your spouse and loving America. Small gift shop with cow bones. If you don't intend to purchase anything, just keep on driving (non-customers are charged 50 cents to use the bathroom).
Eat Wikieup Trading Post
~Unique food (try the rattlesnake!) and fun trinkets to take home. Also excellent, home-made desserts.~ Burned down in 2021, being rebuilt.
Eat Lucia's Restaurant
A serene setting with delicious pie! North of town, at mile marker 114.
Drink
Drink Dazzos
The only place in town that serves ice cold beer. They also have alcoholic seltzers. Not open on Saturdays, closes between 6PM and 7PM. While you can order a beer, most people are passing though or live in the RV park. Not a very social place.
Sleep
Stay Wikieup Trading Post Motel
The only place to sleep. It has three rooms. One is used as storage and filled with boxes, and none have air conditioning.
Go next
You can take Hwy 93 to get out, but if you are up to some dirt road traveling, you can pick up chicken springs road, and travel to Yucca, Alamo lake, or Lake Havasu.
