80 Road Adventures West of Denver

The Best Mountain Drives

Colorado Byways is your guide to adventure on 80 of the Centennial State's most beautiful and historic unpaved backroads.  With detailed directions and maps, extensive how-to information, and fun facts for every trip, this glovebox-size travel companion will take you to alpine summits, deep river gorges, historic ghost towns, rock-art sites, even a remote dinosaur fossil quarry.

Fun, informative, and easy to use, Colorado Byways will take you...

  • To breathtaking mountain vistas near Aspen, Vail & Breckenridge
  • Across the Continental Divide on rugged 19th century wagon roads
  • Up the 14,000 foot summits of the soaring San Juan Mountains
  • Along the one-of-a-kind experience of the world famous Alpine Loop
  • To dizzying overlooks of the canyons in Dinosaur National Monument
  • Past radiant meadows of wildflowers in Rocky Mountain National Park

Whether you're yearning for the thrill of a mountainside four-wheel-drive trail or a relaxing cruise amid rolling hills and pastoral valleys, Colorado Byways takes you there for less than the price of a tank of gas.

Praise for Tony Huegel's series
Backcountry Drives for the Whole Family

"...well organized and presented ...one of the best guides of its type around." Open Road Magazine

"Author Tony Huegel has ... produced some of the best guides that we've ever seen for those who really want to get away with the whole family.  [His Byways Series] all offer concise directions, clear maps and excellent advice on how to get the most out of your off-road adventure."  Motor Week (Maryland Public television)

"Huegel's attention to seemingly every detail and his sincere goal of wanting to make outdoor adventure a family activity set his guidebook apart and make it a joy to read.  Every page is infused with the excitement the author obviously feels for the great American wilderness." 4Wheel Drive and Sport Utility Magazine
