Highway 1, CA, USAImage Source: visitcaliforniaPARTS of Highway 1  are among the world’s most famous driving routes, in particular those parts of it designated as the Pacific Coast Highway. This makes the route a must for our North American road trip planner. One Californian tip for visitors is to take the  Highway 1 Classic, a five-to-seven day trip along this coastal-hugging highway from San Diego up to Los Angeles, though Santa Barbara and wine country, before heading north to the beaches of Carmel, Monterey and Santa Cruz and ending up in San Francisco. Highway 1  has its own unofficial theme tune, the 1972 hit by America,  Ventura Highway, whose author Dewey Bunnell told a 2001  documentary  that the tune’s subject matter and iconic  twin-guitar hook  was  inspired by “a  mental picture of the stretch of the coastline traveling with my family when I was younger. Ventura Highway itself, there is no such beast, what I was really trying to depict was the Pacific Coast Highway, Highway 1, which goes up to the town of Ventura.”Video Source: YouTube4. Deals Gap, TN, USAImage Source:  dealsgapPOPULAR for its seemingly endless amount of curves and bends, Deals Gap, also known as the  â€˜Tail of the Dragon’, is an extremely popular  and  exciting route in Tennessee, especially for motorcyclists. One of the most dramatic additions to any North American road trip planner. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); 5. Pan-American HighwayImage Source:  wikitravelTHE Pan-American Highway is a key route for many motorists. A drive through almost 48,000km of roads from Alaska to South America, it remains a somewhat loosely defined dream. Canada  has never officially defin ed specific routes; the US designation of its Interstate Highway System is not  reinforced by official signage; and in Panama, the  Darién Gap’s  100km of impenetrable mountainous jungle  terrain unavoidably breaks the highway link. However, the North American stretch of the highway from Prudhoe Bay in Alaska down to the Darién Gap, makes possible a 26,000km drive  through numerous countries and a stunning range of scenery and climactic conditions.6. Cabot Trail, Nova Scotia, CanadaImage Source:  wikiMediA COMMONS  / photography:  TONY WEBSTERTHIS  drive in Nova Scotia  is  around  185 miles long and spirals around the northern section of Cape Breton Island.  The Cabot Trail takes several hours to complete,  as many visitors  will want to take in the beauty and awe of towns and views along  the scenic trip.
