Overview

Phantom Road meanders through the lush forests and rolling hills of the Rocky Mountains, presenting an awe-inspiring backdrop of Pikes Peak and the expansive valleys below. The route is a harmonious blend of tranquility and adventure, with peaceful woodland stretches interrupted by the excitement of navigating whoop-de-dos and ruts that demand a driver's attention. Seeing areas recovering from past wildfires adds a sobering yet inspiring element, highlighting nature's resilience and cyclical renewal. As a relatively accessible trail with varying features, Phantom Road is the perfect playground for newcomers seeking their first off-road adventure and experienced drivers yearning for a scenic and engaging drive.
