#3 - Trans-Canada Highway, Canada
Journeying across the Trans-Canada Highway is an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Just as its name implies, this transcontinental highway system goes from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic Ocean, spanning from Victoria, British Columbia, to St. John’s, Newfoundland. And did you know that it crosses into 10 Canadian provinces and six different time zones? Not only is the Trans-Canada highway the country’s longest national road, but this route also happens to be one of the three longest single-country highway treks in the world. In other words, driving this 8,030 km (5,000-mile) stretch of road is an immense feat, one that requires serious time and preparation. But, if you can swing it, riding this highway will surely be a rewarding experience: not only will you see the variations in the landscape across the country, but you’ll be able to stop off in some of the country’s more densely populated areas and explore a diversity of cultures, languages, dialects, and all the qualities specific to each region that make Canada such a unique and wonderful place to explore.
