Welcome to UCPlaces and the next chapter of our eastbound Route 66 adventure—from Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Amarillo, Texas! Today, we’ll climb out of Albuquerque through Tijeras Canyon, cross the open country of eastern New Mexico, and enter the wide horizons of the Texas Panhandle. Along the way, we’ll discover how a highway became a livelihood for small towns—and why some places flourished while others fell quiet. Our journey brings together the Mother Road’s famous landmarks and its quieter surprises: antique cars and soaring aircraft near Moriarty, a desert town with an astonishing blue swimming hole, and weathered roadside stores that once supplied generations of travelers. In Tucumcari, classic motels and colorful signs recall the promise of a comfortable room after a long day behind the wheel. Farther east, we’ll cross into Texas and reach Adrian, where the midpoint sign celebrates being halfway between Los Angeles and Chicago. We’ll finish near Amarillo, with the unmistakable Cadillacs of Cadillac Ranch offering one last roadside surprise. We’ll follow surviving stretches of historic Route 66 and use Interstate 40 where it connects them. Keep following the app’s navigation for the turns. Some attractions are optional visits, so feel free to pause for a meal, a photo, or a little exploring whenever something catches your interest. Get comfortable and enjoy the changing scenery. We’ve got mountains, small-town stories, neon memories, and a whole lot of open road ahead. Let’s get back on the Mother Road!

Welcome to Day 3 of our Route 66 journey. Today we’re leaving the pine forests of Flagstaff and heading east to Albuquerque, with a lot of open country and a few wonderfully strange roadside surprises in between. We’ll pass Winona, a tiny place made famous by the Route 66 song. We’ll find dinosaurs at Meteor City, a corner immortalized in another song in Winslow, and the colorful hills of the Painted Desert. If you have extra time, Meteor Crater and Petrified Forest National Park make remarkable detours. Then we’ll cross into New Mexico, where Gallup, Grants, and the communities of Laguna Pueblo add new stories to the road. We’ll drive surviving sections of historic Route 66 where they fit our route and use Interstate 40 to connect them. Some of the best moments today are small ones: an old sign, a quiet trading post, or a bend in the road that still feels much as it did decades ago. Take your time. Albuquerque will be there when we arrive.

Today’s drive takes you from the pine-covered mountains of Flagstaff through the vast, sun-baked high desert and into the historic heart of Southern California’s Inland Empire — San Bernardino. Along the way, you’ll trace the original Mother Road’s winding path, experiencing iconic Route 66 sights, quirky roadside attractions, and a dramatic shift in landscape. From the awe-inspiring views of the Mogollon Rim to the remnants of classic motels and neon signs in Kingman, you’ll feel the pulse of Route 66’s golden era. Pass through small towns that tell stories of early American travel, mining booms, and westward dreams. As you descend from the desert’s vast openness toward the bustling urban sprawl, keep an eye out for classic diners, vintage gas stations, and the unmistakable charm that makes this stretch one of the most celebrated on the entire route. By the time you arrive in San Bernardino, the official birthplace of Route 66, you’ll have journeyed through a tapestry of history, culture, and landscape — all tied together by the enduring spirit of the Mother Road.

Welcome to Route 66! Today, we're beginning at the Pacific Ocean in Santa Monica and heading east toward San Bernardino, following the Mother Road through Los Angeles and the communities along the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. Now, if you're already east of Los Angeles, you can begin your Route 66 journey with our next tour starting in San Bernardino. But if you're anywhere near Santa Monica, we highly recommend starting right here. There's a reason. For travelers historically heading west, this was the final stretch of Route 66 — the last chapter of an incredible journey across America before reaching the Pacific. And that means there's a lot of Route 66 history packed into the road we're about to travel. We'll begin at the famous western terminus in Santa Monica, travel through Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, follow historic sections of the Mother Road through Pasadena and along Foothill Boulevard, and discover some wonderful pieces of roadside Americana along the way. We'll see historic motels and service stations, unusual roadside architecture, monuments that actually predate Route 66, and even the place where one of the world's most famous fast-food stories began. And as we travel east, you'll notice the character of the road beginning to change. The dense streets of Los Angeles gradually give way to the classic Route 66 corridor that will eventually carry us toward the wide-open landscapes of the American Southwest. This tour ends in San Bernardino, but our Route 66 journey certainly doesn't. From there, simply start the next UCPlaces Route 66 tour and we'll continue heading east together. So get comfortable, follow the navigation, and let's turn our backs on the Pacific and begin one of the world's great road trips. Chicago may be a long way from here — but Route 66 starts for us right now.

Welcome to Granbury, Texas! And first things first: it's Gran-bury, not Cranberry. There are no cranberries involved in the name. Granbury was named after General Hiram B. Granbury, a Confederate officer who was killed during the Civil War in 1864. He never actually lived here, but when the town was established a couple of years after his death, it was named in his honor. Later in our tour, we'll pass the cemetery where he is buried and tell you more about his story. But Granbury has plenty of other stories to tell. On this tour, we'll begin in the heart of its beautifully preserved historic downtown, where nineteenth-century buildings surround the Hood County Courthouse. We'll pass an old jail, a pioneer cabin, and a railroad depot before heading into the Texas countryside. From there, the drive becomes considerably more scenic. We'll follow part of the Comanche Peak Loop, travel along quiet country roads, see the distinctive Comanche Peak, and make our way toward Lake Granbury and the Brazos River. We'll even point out a great observation point where you can stop, stretch your legs, and take some photos. We'll also visit Acton, where the widow of legendary frontiersman Davy Crockett is buried, before making our way back toward Granbury and finishing right on the water at Granbury City Beach Park. Along the way, you'll hear stories about pioneers, soldiers, outlaws, and even a man who claimed he was Jesse James long after Jesse James was supposedly dead. So buckle up, enjoy the scenery, and get ready to discover the history, legends, and back roads of Granbury, Texas. Let's get started!

Aloha! Welcome to this UCPlaces Reverse Road to Hana Self-Guided GPS Audio Driving Tour. This tour is designed for travelers leaving Hāna and making their way west toward Pāʻia and Kahului. Since you may have already visited many of these places on your way to Hāna, our return journey will focus mostly on fresh stories, history, and interesting information about the places around us. I’ll also point out a few worthwhile stops you may have missed or that are easier to visit from this direction. Before we begin, check the time and make sure you have enough daylight for the drive. The road is narrow and winding, with many sharp curves and one-lane bridges, making it considerably more challenging after dark. The drive from Hāna to Kahului generally takes about two to two and a half hours without extended stops, but traffic and road conditions can make it longer. So, relax, enjoy a new perspective on this legendary road, and simply follow the navigation.
