Where To Weekend
The Year of the Road Trip is upon us.

While you may have dreamed of transoceanic itineraries at the start of 2020, the world had other plans for all of us. Luckily, there’s a great big land out there for exploring.

This year is all about the road trip, whether it’s a few-hour drive or a multi-week trek. Driving isn’t a new form of travel, but under this year’s unprecedented circumstances, it’s been reinvigorated. Car travel allows for social distancing, but also affords an opportunity that planes and trains don’t: complete control. You’re in charge of where you want to go and when you want to stop–road trips are all about getting to do and see whatever piques your interest.

From grand tours across the nation to off-the-beaten-path journeys into the unexpected wonders of America, we’ve outlined a variety of possibilities to inspire your next adventure. When it’s safe, when you’re ready, there’s a whole big world out there to see with the windows rolled down.

In this scary, maddening year, we can still look to find beauty all around us, especially if we take the road less traveled.
