State Scenic Corridors
State Scenic Corridors are designated routes that showcase the natural beauty and cultural heritage of a region. These corridors often include highways, byways, and roads that provide travelers with picturesque views, recreational opportunities, and access to local attractions. They are intended to enhance the travel experience while promoting tourism and conservation.
The designation of a State Scenic Corridor typically involves a thorough evaluation of the area's landscape, historical significance, and ecological value. Many states, such as California and Oregon, have established these corridors to protect scenic vistas and encourage responsible tourism, benefiting both visitors and local communities.
