Road trip with beautiful scenery

For our honeymoon, DH and I travelled from Vancouver to Calgary with a side trip to Vancouver Island. We went on boat trips, cycled, walked, white water rafted and generally enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.

For our 25th wedding anniversary we are wanting to plan a road trip with equally amazing scenery and whilst we are not as active as we were, would like to incorporate some walking and cycling and possible other outdoor activities.

Looking for any suggestions of beautiful natural places?

West cost of Scotland.

I would drive around Iceland. We only did the southern part when we went but it was stunning. I’m planning on going back one day to drive the full route 1, which is a full loop of the country.

Also recommend Norway, beautiful to drive around. Loved the scenery of South Island New Zealand and Great Ocean Road near Melbourne too if you’re wanting further afield.

I agree with @ginforall . We drove the Iceland Ring Road last year - it was the best holiday I have ever had. So much amazing scenery.
