Road Trip
- Transport Mode: Car
- Companies: None required; personal vehicle or rental options such as Enterprise, Hertz, or Avis can be considered.
- Duration: Approximately 10 hours
- Distance: 600 miles
- Costs: Estimated fuel cost: $90 - $120 (based on current gas prices of approximately $3.50 per gallon and an average fuel efficiency of 25 miles per gallon). Rental car cost: $50 - $100 per day depending on the provider and vehicle type; total estimated cost between $140 - $220.
- Roads/Routes: Take US-82 W from Clarksville to I-44 N, then continue on I-44 N until you reach I-70 W. Take I-70 W to US-27 N and finally to Goodland, KS.
Pro Tip: Make sure to take breaks at scenic rest stops along I-70, such as the historic town of Oakley, KS, which features interesting attractions and dining options. It's also a great way to stretch your legs and refresh before continuing your journey.
If you prefer to enjoy the flexibility and pace, driving your own car (or a rental) will allow you to explore the routes and take necessary breaks at your convenience. Plan your fuel stops ahead to avoid high prices in remote areas!
