Utah is a great place for camping. One of the reasons it attracted Mormon settlers was because it was full of stunning natural beauty, like nothing anyone had ever seen before.
The good news for all you campers and hikers is that all that scenery has been preserved by the park service for us to enjoy today. If you look at a map of Utah, you’ll see that almost the entire south-central portion is national park. You could easily spend several weeks in Utah and always find new things to see.

One of the greatest scenic drives in North America is California’s Highway 1. It is a stretch of road that winds it’s way right along the coast and right up against the mountains from Cambria (between LA and SF) and Carmel, almost at the Oregon border. It works its way through Big Sur, San Francisco, and some of the most beautiful coastline driving you’ll ever see.
One word of warning though - Highway 1 is a slow, scenic drive, not one to make miles on. It’s a route for drivers who want to take in the scenery and are in no hurry to get to their destination, which means it’s perfect for motor home drivers.
