No one knows the best hidden, winding, scenic roads like a Corvette owner. We got eight local Corvette clubs to spill their secrets when it comes to their favorite drives.

This year, the Corvette marks its 70th anniversary. To honor this iconic sports car — and inspire you to explore somewhere new in your Corvette — we asked Corvette clubs around the country which cruises are their favorite and keep them coming back. From straights that’ll send your tachometer spinning to twists and turns where you can find that perfect apex, there’s something for everyone in each of these routes. Just make sure to stop and enjoy the scenery along the way, too.
