Mount Rushmore. Joshua Tree. Wall Drug.
When embarking on the star-spangled rite of passage that is the cross-country road trip, there are a few places you’re obligated to stop. But almost a century after Route 66 was established, you’ve probably seen all the classics (and the throngs of tourists that tend to come with them).
So we built a road-trip itinerary that weds 50 classic American waypoints with 100 lesser-known (but equally worthwhile) destinations. That’s two in each state — one for family-friendly trips, one for your friends — along with 50 standards, for a grand total of 150 stops.
A couple caveats before you embark. To help us narrow down the picks, we got in touch with the tourism department in all 50 states (well, we tried, and had varying levels of success), and asked them to offer up recommendations for both the classic and contemporary destinations. But we’ve also included some from our own travels.
If you come across a distillery, brewery or other establishment offering alcoholic beverages, we are also recommending you settle down for the night (or choose a designated driver). And lastly, we’re only picking places to turn off your engine and actually stop, rather than dedicated road-trip routes.
Clear out your camera roll and hit the road.

You may know about Hemingway’s house in Florida, but did you know he was buried in Idaho?

Family:
French Lick and West Baden
Two old world resorts that date back to 1901 and, unlike many of their counterparts, haven’t lost the grandeur. Look out for the dome on West Baden peeking out from the trees — from 1902 to 1913 it was the largest free-spanning dome in the world.
