9. Utah’s Mighty Five Trip
Visit all five national parks here on one loop road trip. Those who have been, suggest taking a good week with a focus on the five parks: Zion, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Bryce Canyon, and Arches. Begin and end your trip in Las Vegas, Nevada. You may, however, want to stop briefly in Page or Monument Valley (on the border) as well since the drive to your first official stop in Moab is lengthy. The next stop is Capitol Reef. From there you go to Bryce Canyon, and eventually a last stop in Zion before driving back to Las Vegas.
10. I-90 Portland To Yellowstone Trip
Taking this scenic route from Portland, Oregon to see Yellowstone National Park is an exceptional 812-mile trip. Your journey begins on I-84 as you cruise along the striking Columbia River Gorge. Stop at beautiful Multnomah Falls then spend the night in Richland.
Then you take I-90 through Spokane, past the lovely lake of Coeur d’Alene, then through the Nez Pearce-Clearwater National Forests. Stop in Missoula, along the Clark Fork River, and see Caras Park. Follow I-90 to Highway 287 which leads to West Yellowstone where you’ll find the national park. You could do it in two days but take four or five.
