Honeymoon roadtrip

**hoffman25** · 09-14-2014, 01:34 PM

My fiance and I are planning on going on a road trip for our honeymoon in June. We are planning on starting in Denver, stopping in Utah, from Utah heading to the Grand Canyon, then going to Santa Fe and finishing in Denver. We are planning the trip taking about between 10 and 14 days.

I have never planned a trip like this so I am looking for some pointers on planning it. Also if there are any particular places we should check out that would be great.

We are planning on tenting some and staying hotels.

Hello and welcome to the RTA forums !

With so much to see and do in the Four Corners region you will have to pick and choose from so many great options. It is easy to get caught in the trap of trying to see too much in a small amount of time and having to rush through places, which is not ideal, especially for a honeymoon trip. A short wat from Denver you will find the Alpine scenery of Rocky mountain NP and as you head west towards Utah you have options such as Loveland pass of I70 onto US6 and the like of Colorado NM. Arches and Canyonlands NP's near Moab are wonderful NP's and then you could cut through Monument Valley to the South rim of the Grand canyon before making your way towards Santa Fe. I would suggest you study a good map of the area and do a little searching around the forums, this RV trip out of Denver should give you some insight to the possibilities but as mentioned, to get out to the GC with only 10-14 days you will have to be selective as you also have the likes of Mesa Verde,Capitol Reef, Bryce canyon and Zion NP's plus much more to consider. Once you have done a little more research and got a few more dots on the map then we can help put it together with a bit of 'fine tuning'.
