Racing Spirits and River Sunsets

A road trip through the heart of the Midwest, blending racing history, quirky roadside attractions, and the natural beauty of the Ozarks.


Route: Indianapolis → Casey → St. Louis → Steelville → Eminence → Ste. Genevieve → Edwardsville → Alton → Indianapolis

Since you're starting with a drive of exactly two hours and 43 minutes from Indy, I'm setting our sights on the St. Louis area to kick off a loop that hits the best of the Midwest's hidden nature and river towns.

Heads Up

State parks in Missouri are free, which saves a ton of money on this route.

Pack a cooler—the Ozark sections (Days 3-4) are remote, and having your own picnic by a spring is much better than hunting for a diner.
