Scenery

This route mostly follows the Mississippi River and does cut through the small town of Dayton. There are nice small hills that add to the scenery.

Drive Enjoyment

The beginning of the route does start on the outskirts of the metro area so it could have some traffic. It also begins with quite a few stop and go's. The road condition begins slightly rough but definitely not filled with potholes/cracks. Once you make it pass Jefferson Hwy/169 the road conditions improve drastically and the speed becomes more consistent.

Tourism Opportunities

There are quite a few parks along the park that you can stop at to view the river and scenery of forests and valleys that you wouldn't expect to see close to the city.
