Northwest USA

Non-stop mountains, pine forests and scenic camping, across four of Northwest USA’s wildest states. This self-drive tour gives you an opportunity to traverse some of Northwest America’s wildest states. From Washington and Idaho to Montana and Oregon, there won’t be a moment where you’re not completely besotted with this beautiful corner of the USA. Sensible distances and conveniently located campgrounds give you every chance to get out and explore. Whilst scenic byways and back roads make each day just as much about the journey as the destination. On this self-drive you travel at your own pace and picnics as well as barbecues at the campsites brings a real sense of adventure. This is a chance to drive past the peaks of Cascades National Park as well as around the geothermal features of Yellowstone. In between you’ll be treated to a near-permanent backdrop of lakes, rivers, and pine-covered mountain slopes. Binoculars are a must. You never know when you might spot a moose or bear appearing from the edge of the forest. Following sections of the Oregon Trail will take you into America’s pioneering, gold mining and early settler past. Native American heritage will feature, too, as well as opportunities to experience enormous modern-day structures, such as the Grand Coulee Dam. From the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains to the communities of Le Grande, Jackson, and Portland, this is one American road trip that really does access all areas.
