Looking to slow down? Then get behind the wheel and hit the road! We offer you twelve scenic itineraries that are guaranteed to leave everyday life behind on a road trip.

2. Garden Route, South Africa

Turquoise blue waters, endless sandy beaches, deep gorges, dense forests and vast deserts: a highlight follows the next on the Garden Route in South Africa. And because bungee jumping, boat tours, and safaris await you away from the 220-kilometer route, you should definitely plan for a stopover.


The Blucrans Bridge, 216 meters high, is the longest bridge in all of Africa.

3. Jabal Hafeet Street, Abu Dhabi

Anyone who has reached the 1,240-meter-high Jebel Hafeet in Abu Dhabi looks at the endless light brown color of the desert. The way there is simply gorgeous! The twelve-kilometer road winds through the mountains at 60 turns. The three lanes (two up, one down) are lined with white concrete blocks – as fall protection. Because he threw quite a few drivers off the rails.

Aloha! The 103.6-kilometer road from Kahului to Hana not only takes you to the city of around 1,200 people in eastern Maui, but also deep into the rainforest of the Kolao Forest Reserve. Waterfalls, bathing ponds, quiet towns and deep valleys pass a total of 54 bridges.


Simply intoxicating: waterfalls all the way to here.

Are you a fan of history? Then click on Via Aurelia! Or, to be more precise: on State Road 1, SS 1, which runs along the old road. The 962 km long historical flagship served the Romans as a trade route between Rome and the capital of the Tuscan province of Pisa.

8. Kardong Pass, India

Kardung Pass High and High: With a gorge height of about 5,360 meters, the mountain pass in North India is one of the highest permissible in the world! Inexperienced travelers feel a little nauseous on the largely paved road, that they cannot enjoy the spectacular view of the canyon at all.


The Kardong Pass is the highest auto lane in the world.

9. Lierdals Tunnel, Norway

You can tell that tunnel vision can also be stunningly beautiful in Norwegian Lærdalstunnel. The white, blue, and yellow lighting should ensure that you do not sleep while driving through a road tunnel more than 24 kilometers long (log!). So: keep your eyes open!


Not the light in the end, but the colorful lights inside the Lærdal Tunnel make the trek a great experience.

10. Great Ocean Road, Australia

Deserted beaches, waterfalls, gigantic rock formations: Along the Great Ocean Road, the legendary Coastal Road, Australia shows its coolest side! With a little luck, you’ll also spot a koala, kangaroo, or emu along the way. But remember: always stay in the left lane.

11. Seven Mile Bridge, United States of America

The Overseas Highway is 205 kilometers – the most impressive part is clearly the Seven Mile Bridge, which connects the Florida Keys. Incidentally, the bridge is not seven, but only 6.79 miles (10,931 meters) long. If you’re lucky, you’ll cross it in fine weather: the waters below you are crystal clear.


The Seven Mile Bridge is less than seven miles long and still looks endless.

12. Furka Pass, Switzerland

Cars, motorbikes and caravans bow over the 2,429-meter Furka Pass from Wallis to Oernerland, especially on weekends – even without Her Majesty’s secret mission.


Even without Aston Martin, you can experience the beautiful Swiss mountains on the Furka Pass.
