A roadside stop with a sense of humor

Carhenge borrows the idea of Stonehenge and rebuilds it using automobiles. Its silver-gray shapes stand out against the open landscape near Alliance, inviting a second look at objects you thought you knew. Walk around the installation and take in the changing outlines from different angles.

Make the detour part of the journey

This is a stop to stretch your legs, look closely and enjoy the surprise. Pair it with time in Alliance rather than treating it as a destination with a fixed program. The outdoor setting is part of its appeal.
