Avis' Epic World Roads

 

 

 
   
   
The word ‘road’ should not conjure images of traffic, smog, and potholes... Roads are our key to the world, with the ability to transport us through incredible landscapes, to destinations we never would have dreamed possible. 
   
Indeed, the best part is the journey; so with 3 of Avis’ epic world roads, Avis can help travellers get started. Supercars or super-minis, hot hatches or humongous people carriers, the Avis fleet has got it covered. Drive away with a car from the Avis Select Series or Avis Prestige models; skip the queues with Avis Preferred priority service. With the option of Avis one-way car hire, the car can be picked up at point A and dropped off at point B, without worry. So an exciting drive adventure can begin on one of the following Avis routes!

 

 
 Germany, The Black Forest 
   
Drive the L126 through the southern part of Germany’s Black Forest. The scenery is breathtaking, with trees interspersed with rivers and lakes, but the drive with its hairpin bends coupled with the mountainous terrain will really set pulses racing.   

 

 
 New Zealand, The Karamea Highway 
   
This road is rich with scenery and little towns along the way and despite its physical deadend status, this drive is anything but dead-end. It finishes spectacularly as the road turns into a pathway, the Heaphy Track. The drive has plenty of bends to keep drivers alert as they journey through the beautiful sub-tropical rainforests; and then a long straight road along the coast opens up the view for miles out to the Tasman Sea.  

 

 
 USA, California Pacific Coast Highway 
   
This stretch of Highway 1 chases the ragged central California coastline to Big Sur, going via the picture perfect Carmel. This drive is renowned for its sensational views over rocky cliffs, revealing the Pacific Ocean’s whitecaps as they rush past staggering dark rocks. Featuring a mixture of sweeping curves, straights and some more tricky bends to navigate, it is the endless views out over the ocean that will make one want to drive this road time and again!  
   
There are many more roads waiting to be explored. With more than 5,500 rental locations in 170 countries, Avis can lead the way!
