Elkhorn Scenic Byway Map

The Elkhorn Scenic Byway is a fully-paved scenic byway loop around the stunning Elkhorn Mountains. The highlight is climbing up and over the mountain pass past Anthony Lakes, and this section is likely only passable in July, August, September, and possibly October due to snow and a lack of maintenance on the road.
