We just road tripped to some of the most beautiful mountain towns in the USA! If you love camping, beautiful hikes, insane mountain views, and more, you HAVE to do this road trip someday too!
Travel tips:
🚐Check road conditions as there are many remote sections and mountain passes in the route
🌼June-August is a great time for this road trip to see wildflowers. Go in September-early October for fall colors!
Camping tips:
⛺️All of these places have incredible free, designated campsites – consider camping along the route to save money and enjoy nature! You can find locations on the town’s websites.
♻️Use littlekamper propane for camp cooking! When your Little Kamper is empty, it is exchangeable at any retailer that carries them, making it a great sustainable swap!
