Drive Character
Prepare for a turn-heavy local drive that demands your full attention behind the wheel. Unlike a monotonous interstate slog, this 188.8-mile route features a 0% highway share, meaning you will navigate exclusively via South Plains Road, South North Plains Road, and North North Plains Road. The personality of this trip is defined by consistent turns rather than long, straight stretches of pavement. You will find that the road remains technical throughout the entire duration, requiring you to stay alert through every transition. It is an engaging, hands-on driving experience that keeps you involved with the road surface from start to finish.
Most of the miles stay on highways, which makes pacing and fuel planning easier than turn-by-turn city driving.
There are about 27 navigation steps in the underlying route data, so the final approach matters more than the middle miles.
I 77 is the longest continuous segment at about 86.3 miles.
