Author’s recommendation
This route is especially enjoyable from spring through fall. Because there are so many scenic overlooks and places to stop for refreshments, we recommend setting aside plenty of time for breaks.
If you’d like to spread the tour out over two days at a leisurely pace, you’ll find plenty of motorcycle-friendly accommodations along the route—from cozy bed-and-breakfasts and inns to hotels and campgrounds.
