RV trip to Yellowstone – the scenic route

Are you planning a trip to Yellowstone but have yet to decide which route to take? We have some tips for the most stunning scenic byways and fun sights on your way to the national park. It all depends where you start your RV vacation.

Pickup your RV in Salt Lake City

If you choose to pick up your rental RV in Salt Lake City, it is about a 2 hour en 45 min drive to Green River, Wyoming. From Green River you can visit the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area. The Flaming Gorge reservoir is a fishing paradise and the scenic loop will give you beautiful vistas! Another must-see on your list is Grand Teton National Park, located south of Yellowstone. Drive through this stunning park with a continuous view on the Grand Tetons. Just before entering this national park, make sure you stop in Jackson for your overnight or a bite to eat.

Pickup your RV in Denver

If you start you RV trip in Denver, you are only 1,5 hour drive away from Rocky Mountain National Park. If you have the time, you can add the Black Hills in South Dakota to your itinerary. This way you finally get to see Mount Rushmore Memorial! From the Black Hills you can drive to Yellowstone via the I-90 in northern Wyoming. Add Devils Tower and the Bighorn Canyon on your list of sights to see! Just before you reach Yellowstone National Park, plan a stop in Cody. This small town not only offers a great museum – Buffalo Bill Center of the West – but is also the host of the Cody Nite Rodeos all summer long!

Pickup your RV in Billings

Billings is only an 1 hour drive to Red Lodge, Montana and from here you can drive the famous all-American Road, the Beartooth Highway, to Cooke City Silver Gate. This is one of the northern entrances to Yellowstone National Park. The Beartooth Highway is 68 miles and has more than 20 peaks over 12,000 feet, with immense views over snow-capped peaks and bright blue alpine lakes. Our supplier Cruise America offers RV rental in Billings, because this location is so close to Yellowstone.

Pickup your RV in Bozeman

In Bozeman, Montana we offer quality campervan for rent from North American Campervan. Bozeman is only 1 hour from Gardiner, one of the northern entrances of Yellowstone. Instead of immediately starting your trip by going to Yellowstone, you can also explore the beauty of West-Montana for a day or two. Ghost towns Virginia City and Nevada City are also a 1 hour drive and show you over a hundred years of Montana’s history in their preserved houses, stored and even an old steam locomotive. Another tip is the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone (another entrance of the national park).
