Adventure often starts with a simple question: where should we go next? Some routes follow paved highways along rivers and coastlines. Others climb into remote mountain passes and dirt roads that stretch across entire states. On WizzWare, we focus on both scenic road trips through the Pacific Northwest, including the rugged Backcountry Discovery Routes designed for adventure motorcycles. Whether you’re traveling by motorcycle, van, or car, these guides highlight some of the most memorable adventure routes across the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

Pacific Northwest Road Trips

The Pacific Northwest is one of the best regions in North America for road trips. Within a few hours you can travel from dense evergreen forests to wild Pacific beaches, glacier-carved lakes, and wide river valleys. Our PNW road trip guides explore scenic routes across Washington and Oregon, including coastal drives, Olympic Peninsula adventures, and the dramatic Columbia River Gorge.

Backcountry Discovery Routes (BDR)

Backcountry Discovery Routes are multi-day adventure motorcycle routes that cross some of the most remote terrain in the United States. These routes link together dirt roads, forest tracks, and mountain passes to create long-distance off-road adventures. On WizzWare we document BDR rides, planning tips, gear that worked, and lessons learned along the way.
