Epic USA road trip🤯

Steal our itinerary for an epic road trip in the USA👇🏼

I would say the best time for this road trip is in the fall - it’s less busy or at least for us it was!

📍Colorado Springs, CO - This area has a lot going for outdoor activities and small city life. We loved the Garden of the Gods, Paint Mines and Mount Cutler.

📍Canon City, CO - We stopped here for the most epic train ride! It was absolutely incredible going through the Royal Gorge.

📍Great Sand Dunes National Park - This felt like a must stop because who doesn’t want to sand board or sand sled? We felt like we were in another country here. Just wish we got to go back, beware of windy days and sand blowing!

📍Page, AZ - We LOVED Page, AZ and plan to go back. Some of our favorites included Deer Canyon, Navajo Bridge, Waterhole Canyon, Wire Pass, Horseshoe bend and flying with @antelopeair.

📍Grand Canyon, AZ - We had to go to the Grand Canyon because we’d never been. It was indeed, grand! We did a little of the Bright Angel trail but hiking rim to rim is on our bucket list!

📍Sedona, AZ - We fell in love quickly here. We could easily go back and spend another month. Some of our favorites were Subway Cave, Chicken Point, Cathedral Rock and an epic train ride with @verdecanyonrail.
