When we think of travelling, we often think of our destination. And yet, some roads are destinations in and of themselves, as they have the ability to transport us both literally and figuratively. The storied Route 66 in the USA, for instance, is the first to come to mind. But did you know that some of the most beautiful roads in the world are located right here in Canada? Indeed, we have our fair share of scenic routes that are well worth the detour.
When it comes to planning your dream road trip, Canada has it all. With its wide open spaces, national parks, diverse landscapes, and many possible routes, it’s the perfect destination for anyone travelling by car. So get out there and explore! There’s no need to cross the border to enjoy a change of scenery.
You can also take the opportunity to view Canada with fresh eyes and enjoy the many treasures it has to offer. Are you convinced yet? If you’re up for taking a trip to the heart of Canada, here’s our list of must-see scenic drives.
The Icefields Parkway is a route that links Jasper National Park and Banff National Park.

This article wouldn’t be complete without mentioning Quebec—Canada’s largest province!

Another option for lovers of Quebec or anyone who wants to discover the many riches this province has to offer is to take the St. Lawrence Route from Baie-Saint-Paul to La Malbaie.

When leaving Montreal or Quebec City, or after completing your tour of the Gaspé Peninsula, you can drive along the St. Lawrence River and stop to enjoy these two incredible spots.
You won’t regret venturing to Prince Edward Island and taking a road trip around and through the heart of the island.

If not, we recommend taking the route on the eastern part of the island. Drive along some of the most beautiful roads in Canada and enjoy the gorgeous coastal scenery as well as many activities and events all along the island tour.
