The best road trip route through Europe

As a follow-up to my article on Caucasus travel, I think it is also interesting to map road trips for Europe. If you want to learn more about road trips in the Caucasus, check out the previous article.

Europe is a vast continent with a variety of cultures, so I cannot choose a series of sites that satisfy everyone. It is impossible to watch all the attractions at once without regrets.

However, recently I saw a map drawn by Randy Olso and he published a nice article that lists the travel routes in Europe. Unfortunately, I don’t know what went wrong. The map he provided does not work. I can only find information from other websites to organize. I will provide a readable google map in this article.

These sites seem to be the perfect solution for exploring the European continent, so I have carefully studied this map, which shows an epic road trip through Europe.

Overall, the trip covered 16,287 miles (26,211 kilometers) and 14 days of driving time. 14 days here refers to 24 hours a day driving uninterrupted.

Therefore, if you do not plan to die in the car, this road trip is expected to take at least 4 months. I think if you want to have a relaxed mood, then you should spend 5 months on this trip.

If you are a travel lover and have made many long trips. You may notice that the five-month time span is relatively large, and that Europe is in the northern hemisphere, and the climate change brought by the season should be considered.

In this trip, the starting point of the trip is a question worth considering. Therefore, if you want to fully enjoy the European customs and reduce the inconvenience caused by climate change, then it is best to start the journey in March. As for the location, I suggest choosing Turkey.
