Nous envisageons de partir de Denver
Passer par les Badlands, Custer Park, Bighorn Mountains, et quelques diversions sur cette route, puis aller > Glacier
Passer 4 jours dans le secteur de Glacier
et redescendre vers Denver ?
ou repartir par Seattle en passant une petite semaine dans l'état de Washington ?
Ou bien c'est trop ambitieux (une vingtaine de jours maxi)
Merci
Même si le trajet en voiture est un peu long entre glacier et Seattle, je pense qu'en 3 semaines vous avez le temps de faire Denver Seattle, surtout si vous ne passez pas par le Yellowstone.
Bonjour cdja 🙂
En principe, la raison de démarrer de Denver, c'est pour aller au Yellowstone. Comme tu n'en parles pas, j'en déduis que tu y es déjà allée....
Dans ce cas, pourquoi ne pas démarrer de Seattle ? Cela peut te permettre de faire aussi une belle incursion en Colombie Britanique (cela dépend du temps dont tu disposes).
Voilà une idée à creuser

A mon avis, il serait raisonnable de continuer a Seattle. 1 1/2 jours de Glacier a Seattle, et l'ouest de Montana et le nord d'Idaho sont jolis. La route n'est pas du tout interessante entre Spokane et Seattle (ou plutot entre Spokane et le massif Cascades), mais c'est vite fait.
A mon avis vous d'une fois que vous êtes à Glacier NP vous avez 2 possibilités : soit continuer sur Seattle, soit redescendre sur Salt Lake City puis les différents parcs de l'Utah avant de rejoindre Denver.
Sur la route entre les différents lieux que vous citez il y a bien sur Yellowstone ! Sinon entre Denver et les Badlands, vous avez le mont Rushmore et Crazy Horse. Entre Les Badlands et Custer Park, vous pouvez faire un petit détour par Devil's Tower. Une curiosité géologique assez unique et qui se visite rapidement.
Si vous décidé de poursuivre sur Seattle, vous pouvez passer par Columbia River Gorge (en fonction du temps). La route (Highway 84) est très belle et vous pouvez emprunter l'historic highway en approchant de Portland. Cette sénic drive longe une région avec de très nombreuses chutes d'eau, la plus célèbre étant Multnomah Falls. En remontant sur Seattle depuis Portland vous avez le Mont Saint Helens qui est très impressionnant.
En espérant que ca puisse vous aider.
Bonne préparation
Comme la route va être assez longue pour repartir de Glacier et revenir à Denver, je te conseillerai plutôt de continuer et donc d'envisager Seattle (ou autre) comme point de départ.
A quelle époque ton voyage ?
Tu n'envisages pas Yellowstone ?
Nous avons fait une partie de ce trajet l'été dernier, voir ci-dessous.
Merci pour vos réponses
(au fait j'ai beaucoup apprécié le voyage de Madikéra, mais je n'arrive pas à croire que Glacier soit si décevant. Donc, voilà pourquoi j'ai envie d'y aller voir qd même). Mais d'autres avis sont bienvenus.
L'idée, c'était de ne pas aller trop vite dans l'état de Washington, parce que le Yellowstone en 2jours (3 nuits) m'avait paru trop court, il y a deux ans.
Donc, pour ne pas "bâcler" cet état de Washington, la question était de savoir s'il ne fallait pas plutôt lui consacrer un voyage à part, couplé avec la Colombie britannique (ou l'Orégon ?). Dans ce cas, on se contenterait d'explorer un peu plus le Montana avant de retourner au Yellowstone puis d'explorer divers sites des Rocheuses jusqu'à Denver.
Mais d'après vos réponses, l'option Seattle a l'air praticable.
Quant aux parcs du Sud de l'Utah, ils sont sublimes, et je retournerai certainement sur l'arc Bryce Canyon, Boulder Torrey Moab et toutes et ce qu'il y a en dessous.
Mais c'est encore un autre voyage.
Après recul, je considère qu'ont participé à notre déception concernant le parc Glacier: le froid et la pluie, qui ont très fortement limités nos envies de marche et de découverte, le peu de glaciers visibles - apparemment bcp de fonte ces dernières années, la gande densité de choses vues lors de ce dernier voyage et Glacier arrivait en dernier.
Après coup un petit regret: ne pas être allés en partie canadienne car de nombreuses personnes nous avaient dit que c'était la plus belle des 2.
Après coup un petit regret: ne pas être allés en partie canadienne car de nombreuses personnes nous avaient dit que c'était la plus belle des 2.
La partie canadienne n'est pas mal, mais j'ai prefere le parc americain. La partie canadienne est assez petite, et le village Waterton est trop commercial, a mon avis.
Bonjour,
Pour l'avoir "fait" en sep2007, je dirais que OUI, le Washington + Oregon méritent un voyage dédié. Mon périple de 3 semaines de SFO à SFO (donc avec la Calif Nord superbe elle aussi) a été à peine suffisant 😠
Bien sur aller jusque Seattle juste pour y reprendre l'avion, c'est un peu "gaspillage" 🤪
Donc si tu veux te "reprendre" un peu de Yellowstone.... je verrais plutôt :
Denver (ou peut être SLC ?) => Wyoming-Yellowstone, puis le Montana-Glacier et revenir par Idaho jusque SLC ??
En passant : OUI, trois fois OUI, c'est la partie canadienne du Glacier que j'ai préféré !
En ce qui concerne le parc national des glaciers, je n'ai pas le même avis que Madikéra. Nous y sommes passé en septembre dernier et même s'il est vrai qu'on ne voit pas beaucoup de glaciers, ce parc est absolument magnifique. Contrairement à Madikéra, nous avons eu un temps superbe....😎
Nous venons pourtant des Alpes et donc nous avons l'habitude des montagne. Mais les paysages et surtout les lacs de ce parcs sont tout simplement splendides... Maintenant ceci n'engage que moi....
Si vous aimez les paysage de montagne, je pense que ce parc en vaut la peine.
Voici quelques photos pour vous donner une idée....
Nous sommes passés cet été à Glacier, nous sommes restés 4 jours pleins du côté est. Nous serions bien restés plus longtemps, même si nous avions vu auparavant les rocheuses canadiennes. Si vous allez vers Seattle et s'il vous reste un peu de temps, n'oubliez pas North cascades et Olympic.
Bonjour, Boumtchak
vite, je me précipite sur North Cascade, pour voir...
J'en étais (dans mes rêves) à passer par Flathead Lake, Missoula, Hells Canyon, puis les Gorges de la Columbia, et le Mont Hood... et me demander s'il faut pousser jusqu'à Astoria ?
Qu'est-ce qu'on fait, au Mont St Helens ? on regarde en vitesse et on va se promener du côté du Mt Rainier ? Ou c'est un crime ?
Combien de temps passez-vous à Olympic ?
Je n'ai pas envie de faire ça au pas de course... hum hum.
Nous sommes resté une journée complète à Glacier. La veille nous avons dormis à Whitefish. Le lendemain nous avons rejoins le Logan Pass ou nous avons fait Hidden Lake Trail. Balade de 2h aller-retour qui donne une superbe vue sur Hidden Lake. Ensuite nous avons traversé le parc, avec arrêts à différents points de vue, pour rejoindre la région de Many Glaciers. La nous avons fait une balade jusqu'au lac Josephine.
je ne connais pas Hells Canyon, je ne pourrai donc pas t'en parler. Pour Olympic, c'est un parc immense qui est divisé en plusieurs secteurs. Nous avons beaucoup aimé le littoral à partir de Kalaloch. Dans une journée on peut visiter quelques plages et Hoh rain Forest. Il te restera encore beaucoup à voir dans ce parc ( Sol Duc, Hurricane Ridge...) mais il me semble que si tu as déjà fait Glacier et North cascades et s'il ne te reste plus beaucoup de temps pour Olympic, il vaut mieux privilégier les plages et Hoh Rain qui font vraiment la particularité du parc. Je crois par contre qu'il te faudra choisir entre North cascade et Columbia les deux lieux étant situés aux extrémités nord et sud de l'état de Washington.
La route n'est pas du tout interessante entre Spokane et Seattle (ou plutot entre Spokane et le massif Cascades
La précision est importante parce que les Cascades Nord sont, justement, absolument magnifiques et un des plus beaux endroits de l'Etat de Washington (et particulièrement la partie entre Winthrop et Rockport). De Grand Coulee, il faut prendre la 155 Nord puis la 20 Ouest.
Entièrement d'accord avec Kashtin. North Cascades a été mon coup de coeur lors de notre dernier voyage dans le Nord-Ouest et la route à partir de Winthrop est effectivement magnifique.
Hi there,
We're thinking of driving Route 66 from Chicago to LA in fall 2027 or spring 2028 for about a month.
From what I've found, it doesn't exist everywhere anymore, but that's okay! We're happy to take detours along the way. We're open to visiting less touristy or even completely off-the-beaten-path spots.
Are there any websites dedicated to this road trip?
I'd love any tips and advice for this journey—accommodations, vehicle rental, the pros and cons.
Thanks in advance!
Hi fellow travelers, do you think there’s a real benefit to spending 2-3 days in Yosemite when I’ll already be spending a week in Banff and Jasper in the Canadian Rockies? Won’t it feel a bit redundant? I’m asking because Yosemite is expensive (I’d go with an agency from SF, staying in a cabin, since I’ll be solo and without a car) and apparently packed.
Thanks for your feedback!
Hello! The itinerary is pretty much set for August 2026. Yeah, I know it’s gonna be *super* hot. But it’s the only time we can get away.
So, here’s the plan: Montpellier-CDG-Dallas.
Stay from July 31 to August 26, 2026:
Car rental – check,
Hotels – check,
Itinerary – almost check,
Photo gear – check,
Budget – check, 🤪
Meal planning – meh, we’ll see...
Walmart, of course, for the cooler when we arrive.
And now, without too much detail...
Fort Worth:
The Longhorns and the Stockyards;
JR’s ranch (for the missus);
Medal of Honor Museum – Arlington.
Houston and NASA Space Center:
See the Gulf of Mexico/America.
San Antonio and the missions.
Fort Stockton for an overnight stop.
El Paso via Guadalupe Mountains:
El Paso and White Sands.
Tucson and the Pima Air & Space Museum:
Tombstone, Bisbee.
Phoenix:
Still working on the program.
Sedona:
Round trip around the area via Flagstaff and Williams, or the Grand Canyon (already done) – we’ll decide on the spot.
Albuquerque:
Santa Fe,
Turquoise Trail,
Los Alamos.
Amarillo via Route 66:
Old Route 66 in the city;
Big Texas Ranch Steak 😏.
Dallas:
JFK Museum;
Perot Museum;
West End district.
And through it all – the road, the road, and more road!!!
We’ll adapt day by day based on our mental and physical state (we’re not exactly spring chickens).
Hello!
We’ll be arriving in Montreal on October 21st for a 3-day stay.
After that, we’re heading to Sherbrooke to visit our daughter, who’s studying at the university there. We’ll spend 3 days with her, and then, since she has a break that week, we’re taking her along for 3 days in Quebec City.
We’ve planned to visit Montmorency Falls and Île d'Orléans.
I’d love to hear what route you’d recommend for the drive from Sherbrooke to Quebec City—we’ll have the whole day to take it easy.
If you have any other recommendations, I’m all ears!
A little disappointed that the fall colors will be over by then, but the dates couldn’t be helped. Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hello everyone,
We’ve planned a trip (retired couple) for late August to the first half of September in Western Canada.
Classic itinerary: arrival in Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Clearwater, Whistler, Vancouver Island, departure from Vancouver.
I know you can’t see into the future any better than I can, so I’m obviously not asking what the wildfire situation will be like in a month...
But if any of you could let me know if, CURRENTLY, there are major difficulties—not just for locals, of course, but for tourists as well?
We’re hesitating between taking the chance or canceling what we still can.
We’re not young anymore and don’t have the flexibility we once did...
A thousand thanks to those of you on the ground or with contacts there who can help us make this decision!
A friend is renting a car for an upcoming trip during the All Saints' holiday.
Nowadays, all rental cars come with GPS, but do you know if you can use it without paying for the GPS rental? I have no idea since I always use my own!
After our first trip as a young couple to the West in 2007 (yes, that doesn’t make us any younger!), we’re planning to go back in 2028, but this time as a family of four! (We have two boys who’ll be 5½ and 13 years old in the summer of 2028.)
Our plan is to combine a few big cities (SF and LA, maybe San Diego) with national parks and state parks, mostly!
Ideally, we’d like to leave at the end of June and head back to France around July 19–20, so we can enjoy the first week of the Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Since we already did the "loop" in 2007, there are must-see places we absolutely want to revisit—and especially share with our kids: Bryce Canyon, Yosemite, and above all, the Grand Canyon, which is still the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen on Earth!
On the other hand, some places didn’t leave a big impression on us for various reasons, so we’re not making them a priority: Antelope Canyon, Monument Valley, for example.
We’re planning ahead, but might as well be smart about it😏
Do you have any tips for a fun and doable itinerary over about 20–25 days with kids, without rushing?
hi everyone
I’m planning a world trip and I’m looking for great tips on accommodation in the United States.
Do you have any good deals to share, please?
thanks
Hello everyone! Really damaged due to flooding caused by runoff after forest fires (a total mess!), does anyone in this friendly forum have any updates on the Apache Trail between Apache Junction and Roosevelt Dam? Is there still a section of the road that’s tough to navigate?
We're leaving at the end of June and will be driving the route between Buffalo and Cody. We’ve already booked our accommodations and a rodeo in Cody, but during the day, we’ll be driving between the two and I’m unsure about the itinerary.
Which route do you think is the most pleasant, interesting, or scenic between:
- The northern route via Highway 14 with Sheridan, Lowell, etc.
- The southern route with Highways 16/20/14, passing by Loaf Mountain Overlook, Powder River Pass, Ten Sleep Canyon...
We’ll be in a car, so we should be able to drive on any road.
Thanks for your input!
I’m almost done planning our September road trip. After our 3-night visit to Sequoia, we’ll have a stopover night in Coalinga (to break up the drive). We’ll be staying two nights in Monterey and would like to stop along the way to visit one side of Pinnacles National Park. We’re torn between the West entrance and the East entrance, and we’d like to do a short hike of no more than 2 hours since we don’t want to arrive too late in Monterey.
This park is split into two distinct zones with no connection between them, and the mileage from Coalinga to Monterey is pretty much the same for both. Which area do you recommend visiting—east or west? And which route is the most scenic?
I’ve spotted two short hikes:
- East: Moses Spring to Rim Trail Loop
- West: Balconies Cliffs Cave Loop
Has anyone been there, or do you have another hike to suggest?
Thanks in advance, and have a great afternoon!

Hi everyone! 🙂
Just a quick question about King Canyon and Sequoia National Park.
Before our night in Miramonte, we plan to visit King Canyon. The next stop will be two nights in Three Rivers to explore Sequoia National Park. I wanted to go all the way to Roaring River Falls on the King Canyon Scenic Byway and then turn back to head to Miramonte. Since we’re coming from Oakhurst, Google Maps says it’s 300 km and 5 hours of driving. Since we also want to hike to see the sequoias (Big Stump Area and Grand Grove) before tackling the King Canyon Scenic Byway, the timing’s going to be tight. How far do you recommend going before turning back to miss as few points of interest as possible on the King Canyon Scenic Byway? Thanks for your advice, and have a great evening!

Hi everyone!
After years of hoping, waiting, planning, then changing, saving, and searching for the best possible route... we're FINALLY off this summer for a 5-week road trip in the West.
I had planned a trip to Colorado in 2021 but canceled due to COVID, so with time passing and my eldest’s high school graduation approaching fast, I figured it was now or never!

We’ll be alternating between house swaps, motels, and campgrounds. I’ve booked all the accommodations (except the campground at Bryce since sunset bookings open only 14 days in advance) and the first activities, as well as the most touristy ones.
I’m currently putting together my day-by-day roadbook and having some trouble planning certain days, like in LA or Las Vegas. Choosing hikes isn’t easy either—it’s tough to decide!
We’re really excited but could definitely use your help with choices and optimizations!!
Hello.
I’d like to travel along I-15N from San Diego to Las Vegas with my mom, who’s 67. We’ve explored Northern California and the California Coast over the past two years and now want to continue through the desert.
There are several attractions along the way:
- Mormon Rocks
- Desert Discovery Center and visit the Old Woman meteorite
- Joshua Tree National Park
- Mojave Desert
- Mojave National Preserve
- Anza-Borrego Desert State Park
- Silverwood Lake
My mom has back issues that prevent her from hiking or walking on trails with elevation changes. Is it possible to visit these places by car, or are the routes flat enough?
I’d love for her to experience the desert with an itinerary adapted to her condition. I’m also open to other points of interest that aren’t mentioned. We have 3-4 days for the trip, so we’re not in a rush—just want to explore.
I’d love to take a road trip and visit Nova Scotia. I’d appreciate some info on the best cities to see and the most interesting spots. The trip should last about 10 to 15 days, staying in hotels or motels. Thanks in advance!
We’re being relocated to Saint Pierre and Miquelon.
We’ll be taking the flight from Nantes to Montreal and then from Montreal to Saint Pierre.
Could you recommend a hotel near the departure terminal that allows dogs?
Hi,
My 16-year-old son is flying to Grand Rapids with other kids his age. There’s a layover in Detroit. There’s no unaccompanied minor service available. Is it pretty easy to navigate Detroit Airport to catch the connecting flight to Grand Rapids (domestic flight)? There are several of them who speak English well.
Thanks for your replies,
Good evening, everyone! 🙂
Just a few last questions to wrap up our Lake Tahoe visit plans.
**Parking:**
We’d like to walk to Eagle Falls and then Eagle Lake. I’ve spotted two parking lots that seem close to each other and give access to the trailhead. Where and how do we pay for entry to Emerald Bay State Park and Inspiration Point?
**Viewpoints on the East Side:**
Are most of the viewpoints (Balancing Rock, Granite Cave, Bonsai Rock, etc.) right by the road, or do you have to hike to reach them?
**Donner Memorial State Park:**
Is it worth making a detour to Truckee to visit this park and the Truckee historic downtown?
Hi there. I'm shocked by the price of the Upper Antelope Canyon tour—$175 for less than an hour… You might say, "if you can’t afford it…" But the real question is whether it’s really worth it, because $350 for two makes me feel like I’m getting ripped off. For those who’ve done both Lower and Upper, can you tell me if the price difference is really justified? Thanks
Hi everyone! 🙂
As you can see, we're heading back from September 6th to the 27th.
Everything’s booked for September—flights, accommodations, and the car. As I plan, I’ll be asking the experts for help. This is our second trip to California, but most of the stops are new to us.
We’ll start directly from San Francisco to our first overnight stop, Davis, before heading to Lassen Volcanic Park for 4 nights. Our flight lands at 12:50 PM.
Here’s our itinerary:
Day 1: Davis – overnight stop
Day 2: Red Bluff – exploring Lassen Volcanic Park (scenic drive to Lake Helen)
Day 3: Susanville – scenic drive through the park via the South Entrance, points of interest, and hikes
Day 4: Susanville – Cinder Cone and Painted Dunes hike
Day 5: Susanville – Warner Valley (hikes)
Day 6: South Lake Tahoe
Day 7: South Lake Tahoe
Day 8: Mammoth Lake
Day 9: Mammoth Lake
Day 10: El Portal via Tioga Road
Day 11: El Portal
Day 12: El Portal
Day 13: Oakhurst
Day 14: Miramonte
Day 15: Three Rivers
Day 16: Three Rivers
Day 17: Coalinga
Day 18: Monterey
Day 19: Monterey
Day 20: San Francisco
Day 21: San Francisco
Day 22: Departure
For hikes in Lassen Volcanic Park, I’ve planned:
Bumpass Hell, Cold Boiling Lake (Day 2)
Paradise Meadow (maybe not going all the way), Devastated Area, and the loop around Reflection and Manzanita Lakes (Day 3)
Cinder Cone and Painted Dunes (Day 4)
Devil’s Kitchen and Boiling Spring Lake (Day 5)
I’ve read there are trails to access the trailheads for Cinder Cone (11 km) and Warner Valley. Are these easy trails for an SUV?
Are there any other must-see spots or things we shouldn’t miss?
That’s where I’m at for now. Thanks for your replies, and have a great evening!

I’m a total USA addict. I’ve already done several road trips, including the East Coast and West Coast.
I’m here today because I’m planning to go back for another road trip on the West Coast. Possibly with one of my sisters and a couple of friends. It’s still just a plan for now, but I’m working on an itinerary in the meantime. Ideally, I’d leave in 2026, but I don’t have the exact dates yet—maybe April-May or September-October.
My last trip to the West Coast was in September 2014. We went for 2 weeks, but this time it’d be 3 weeks. What made me want to go back was simply a colleague who just left today. As I’m writing this, he’s on the plane. I’m so happy for him, but now all I can think about is going back.
Since I recently went to NY, I noticed that prices have really gone up. I assume the same is true for the West Coast? For 2 people over 3 weeks, what budget should I expect? We’re the type to watch our spending and find great tips.
I think we’ll arrive in San Francisco like the first time and leave from either Los Angeles or Las Vegas.
Thanks for advising me on the booking—should I reserve a room in the hotel or go for a cabin for the best view?
Should I get breakfast or not?
What do you think of the restaurant?
Hello, if the off-the-beaten-path enthusiasts are still around 😉, I’d love some info on tackling these trails. I’m not super familiar with the rules, risks, or what to expect—I’m looking for firsthand experience from folks who’ve done it on their own once or multiple times.
Hi everyone!
I’m planning a week-long family trip to NYC in October 2026. The focus is on museums and soaking up the New York vibe. I’ve been checking Airbnb, but the prices in Manhattan are through the roof. Since I don’t know NYC well, is it "wise" to look outside Manhattan? Any neighborhoods you’d recommend?
After our first trip to the West, we’d love to go back to see other must-see spots!
The stay would be from May 11 to 20, 2026—it’s short, but hey...
M11: Lyon to Las Vegas (overnight in Vegas)
T12: Route 66 – overnight in Grand Canyon (GC)
W13: Visit GC – overnight in Page
Th14: Visit Antelope Canyon / Horseshoe Bend – overnight in Monument Valley (MV)
F15: Visit MV – overnight in Moab
Sa16: Visit Arches / Dead Horse Point – overnight in Bryce
Su17: Visit Bryce – overnight in Zion
M18: Visit Zion / Valley of Fire – overnight in Vegas
Tu19: Return flight
What do you think? Could we add one more night somewhere? We’re not big hikers, so we’ll mostly explore the parks using shuttles.
Also, we’re all set—passports are good. Do you think one classic Visa card and one premium Visa card will be enough for coverage?
Thanks so much for your feedback, and happy holidays!
