Before you drive

Plan an out-and-back or U.S.-only itinerary. The complete signed international loop crosses the Canadian border and is outside this directory’s scope.

Make it a satisfying day

Choose a realistic section, then allow time for viewpoints, a town stop and breaks. Scenic mileage rarely tells the whole story of how long an outing will take.

Match the road to your vehicle

Check the exact roads for your car, RV or motorcoach. Tunnel dimensions, turning space, grades and road surfaces can matter as much as distance.
