This week, I\u2019ll be discussing my favorite picks for September\/October driving trips. If interested in any of these routes, please let ActiveTravels<\/a> know and we\u2019ll design an itinerary that takes into account the latest travel restrictions and lodging where you feel comfortable:<\/p>\n

The fall foliage road trip was designed with places like South Dakota in mind. Venture to Rapid City and you\u2019ll have the chance to cruise with relatively little traffic up and down the pine forests and granite passes of the Black Hills. Highway 385 will lead you to Vanocker Canyon and Spearfish Canyon National Scenic Byway, home to waterfalls and golden aspens. Also in the Black Hills is the 68-mile Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway (a 4-hour drive) that travels through six rock tunnels, past towering pinnacles and over pine-clad peaks, only to arrive at the most famous sculpture in the country, Mount Rushmore. As if that wasn\u2019t enough incentive, the 55th annual fall round-up of bison<\/a> takes place September 25th at nearby Custer State Park. Watch the cowboys and cowgirls drive the herd of some 1,300 buffalo, some of whom will be sold at auction in November. For lodging, it\u2019s hard to top the convenience of the Roosevelt Inn<\/a> in Keystone, located next to Mount Rushmore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
