The TransAmerica Trail is an iconic off-road route, stretching over 5,900 miles and showcasing some of the most rugged, remote landscapes in the United States.
Now, for the first time ever, you can explore this legendary trail virtually through Google Maps Street View.
In collaboration with Ford, Google has captured the stunning beauty of the TransAmerica Trail using the latest in Street View technology.
A specially equipped Ford Bronco, outfitted with our advanced Street View camera, navigated the trail’s challenging terrain over several weeks.
From the dense forests of Oregon to the scenic coastlines of North Carolina, this panoramic imagery provides a one-of-a-kind virtual adventure, bringing you up close to steep cliffs, sweeping deserts, lush forests, and winding rivers.
Whether you’re planning your own overlanding expedition or simply curious about one of the country's most scenic off-road routes, you can now embark on the TransAmerica Trail from the comfort of your home.
With Google Maps Street View, the trail’s vast and varied landscapes are at your fingertips, offering an immersive experience that’s both educational and inspiring.
