Million Dollar Highway \u2014 Colorado<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/inspirato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/million_dollar.jpg\")
\nThis 25-mile stretch in Western Colorado<\/span><\/a> is not for the faint of heart. Running from rural Silverton to Ouray, its isolation is at once exhilarating and terrifying. The road winds through three mountain passes, the highest of which clocks in at 11,000 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\nBlue Ridge Parkway \u2014 Virginia<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/inspirato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/blue_ridge.jpg\")
\nJohn Denver knew what he was talking about when he sang about the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This meandering road<\/span><\/a> through Virginia and the northern tip of the Carolinas offers an abundance of incredible overlooks. Fiery colors pop in fall, but the cool greens and blues of its summer vistas shine, too.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\nOverseas Highway \u2014 Florida<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/inspirato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/overseas_florida.jpg\")
\nEndless views of emerald waters on both sides, a warm sun beating down, and nowhere in particular to be\u2014that sounds like exactly what we need right now. Florida\u2019s Overseas Highway, which runs 113 miles from Miami<\/span><\/a> to Key West<\/span><\/a>, takes about five hours to drive end to end. Stops and traffic vary, so snacks are a must (and be sure to grab a slice of Key lime pie somewhere along the way).<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\nHighway 101 \u2014 Oregon<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/inspirato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/oregon_101.jpg\")
\nFollow the storied Pacific Northwest coastline, with sweeping ocean views and jawdropping cliffsides abound. Oregon<\/span><\/a>\u2019s rocky coast and charming seaside towns make for a perfect day spent driving and stopping off at local landmarks, like Tillamook Cheese Factory and Cannon Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\nRed Rock Scenic Byway \u2014 Arizona<\/strong><\/h2>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/inspirato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/red_rocks_byway.jpg\")
\nWe\u2019re feeling very Thelma and Louise<\/em> when we picture ourselves roaring down this desolate desert highway, red rocks framing the road ahead. Technically only 7.5 miles total, this short-but-scenic byway ends in serene Sedona<\/a><\/span>, with plenty of shops, eats, and arts to take in.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\nPark Loop Road \u2014 Maine<\/strong><\/h2>\n
