Here are the routes we\u2019ll be covering in this article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Pacific Coast Highway (USA)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Kathmandu to Everest Base Camp (Nepal)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Historic Welsh Coast (UK)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Granada to Marrakech (Spain\/Morocco)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Oxley Highway (Australia)<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Pacific Coast Highway (USA)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Pacific-Coast-Highway.jpg\" alt=\"pacific coast highway drone shot\" class=\"wp-image-2541\" srcset=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Pacific-Coast-Highway.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Pacific-Coast-Highway-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Pacific-Coast-Highway-768x483.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><em>Pacific Coast Highway by Cameron Venti, Unsplash<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>As the name suggests, the Pacific Coast Highway is a stretch of road that hugs California&#8217;s beautiful coastlines. The road winds and unwinds for around 660 miles of the golden state. It\u2019s not only one of the world\u2019s best motorcycle road trips, it\u2019s also one of the most famous routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journey has so many jaw-dropping vistas and sightseeing opportunities that many riders tend to explore a section of it rather than attempting its entire length. With this in mind, we\u2019re going to focus on a 268-mile stretch that runs from Morro Bay to San Francisco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traveling along this section of twisty two-lane highway can be a leisurely three-day ride. A few days allow enough time to stop at famous landmarks such as Hearst Castle, the rugged coastline of Big Sur, and the aesthetic Bixby Bridge. California\u2019s Mediterranean climate usually makes for riding conditions that are near perfect, so you can enjoy the most important part of a motorcycle road trip: the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/u\/0\/embed?mid=1-_KC1QrYyszupF4KQFg_R9fIBTlfMiUp\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Kathmandu to Everest Base Camp (Nepal)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Motorcycling-In-Kathmandu.jpg\" alt=\"black royal enfield motorcycle riding in Nepal\" class=\"wp-image-2539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Motorcycling-In-Kathmandu.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Motorcycling-In-Kathmandu-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Motorcycling-In-Kathmandu-768x483.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><em>Nepal Roads by Royal Enfield, Unsplash<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Riding on the \u2018roof of the world\u2019 is one of those bucket list items that motorcyclists around the globe would love to tick. If you\u2019re that way inclined, head to The Himalayas! This world-renowned mountain range covers a vast area from Pakistan in the west, through the width of India, and as far east as The Kingdom of Bhutan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are many to choose from, the most popular route typically starts in Kathmandu, Nepal, and heads east towards the recently formed border with Tibet at Gyirong, through Lhasa. Here you will find <a href=\"https:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/707\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Potala Palace<\/a>, the spiritual home of the Dalai Lama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing east, riders will traverse high-mountain passes, turquoise lakes, and grand glaciers before eventually reaching New Tingri. The Everest Base Camp is just 60 miles further on and stands 17,000 ft above sea level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This round-trip journey is approximately 1,500 miles. However, if you need to shorten the ride due to time constraints, heading from Kathmandu through the beautiful Gyirong Valley to the EBC and back is half the distance, at just over 700 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind, the terrain and the weather in The Himalayas can be unpredictable. Therefore, you might want to consider a touring motorcycle that can handle the rigours of these dilapidated roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Historic Welsh Coastline (United Kingdom)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Historic-Welsh-Coastline.jpg\" alt=\"roads going through mountain range in Wales\" class=\"wp-image-2538\"\/><figcaption><em>Wales, UK, by Julian Rayar, Unsplash<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Wales is the land of ancient castles, fierce Celtic warriors, and Druids. The coastal roads of this historic country take you through picturesque villages and stunning shorelines. It&#8217;s truly a dream for any motorcycle road trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journey begins at the capital city, Cardiff, then you ride west through the Vale of Glamorgan and on to the former Viking stronghold of Swansea. 50 miles further and you\u2019re on the edge of the striking Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue riding along the A487 as it heads northwest past Blue Flag beaches, green valleys, and distant mountains, before reaching the market town of Machynlleth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep to the smaller coastal road (A496) and keep an eye out for Harlech Castle in the valley below. The UNESCO-listed site is one of the best-preserved, 13th-century castles in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, you can head to Snowdonia National Park and before deciding between the Isle of Anglesey and the old seaside town of Rhyl (or both if you have time). If choosing the latter, you can then cross the border to England. Liverpool &#8211; the home of The Beatles &#8211; is just 20 miles further on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=1QXTIu6EPvqvmCXRVssy5k0mZKzdx7cUr\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Granada to Marrakech (Spain\/Morocco)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/damon.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Granada-Coastline.jpg\" alt=\"City road by the coast of Tangier, Morocco\" class=\"wp-image-2537\"\/><figcaption><em>Tangier by Raul Cacho, Unsplash<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Despite this journey straddling two different continents, it\u2019s only 600 miles long and easily doable in just four days. However, with plenty of interesting detours along the way, it&#8217;s natural to want to add a few more days on to your itinerary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This historic route begins at the incredible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alhambradegranada.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alhambra Palace<\/a> in the Andalus\u00edan town of Granada. The ornate palace was built over 1,000 years ago during a time of Muslim reign and is a must-see. After marveling at the Islamic architecture, head southwest either via the A7 coastal road or the AP7 Highway towards Gibraltar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ride around the bay of Gibraltar to the port of Algeciras, where you can take the ferry to Tangier. The ferry runs daily, and in just over an hour, you\u2019ll be rolling down the ramp onto African soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cruise into Africa, you have two choices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The N1 &#8211; A meandering (and sometimes lumpy) coastal route<\/li><li>The A1 &#8211; A faster, well-maintained highway.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Either will take you through Rabat (the capital of Morocco) and Casablanca. From Casablanca, the A7 will lead you 150 miles south to the medieval, walled city of Marrakech, overlooking the picturesque High Atlas Mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigation is easier than you may think with signs in both English and Arabic. However, if you really want to impress the locals, brush up on your French and Spanish before hitting the road.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=1GRox7-PZVtp-ckHq7PQ0AGfksCLcydqK\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5.

This makes choosing the best motorcycling road trip in Australia a tough decision. It\u2019s quite simply massive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A country so vast boasts an incredible number of top-quality roads through impressive scenery. However, if we have to pick one, let&#8217;s take the 100-mile stretch of tarmac called the Oxley Highway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New South Wales road is considered to be one of the best motorcycle road trips by Aussie bikers. It starts in the tiny town of Wauchope and ends at the picturesque colonial town of Walcha. While traveling this route, you\u2019ll ride over the Great Divide Mountains before dropping down onto the Tablelands of New England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what makes this such a two-wheel treat? Well, apart from the awe-inspiring landscapes that change from prairie to rainforest to meadowland, you&#8217;ll also get the opportunity to take in over 300 bends. Did someone say twisties?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This curvaceous road goes from the tightest of hairpins to full-throttle curves as it winds through the Cottan-Bimbang National Park. And that, as they say in their neck of the woods, is one &#8216;fair dinkum\u2019 road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Best Motorcycle Road Trips Await You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t let this globe-spanning list intimidate you!
