Best Road Trip Ever contains almost 10,000 offbeat destinations including enticing eateries, funky art, Route 66 and other gems that are hidden by the strip-mall glare of our nation’s highways.

Colored pins indicate the type of stop that lies around the bend. Select one and explore photos and stories to determine if it fits your groove. Why have lunch at a chain when you can order from the window of a giant hotdog? Stretch your legs in the concrete garden of a visionary or stroll through a graveyard, which holds only circus folks. These handpicked stops were curated for those who believe life is what you make of it.
