Indiana's catalog mixes southern hill-country routes with lake-country and rural highways. The route maps help distinguish a short scenic section from a much longer state-road journey.

These 3 editorial picks come from the RevRoutes Explore catalog. Each orange line is the exact saved itinerary, and its listed mileage follows that route rather than the full length of a named highway or byway. The list is a starting point for choosing a drive, not a live road-conditions report.

Exact catalog lines. Every orange route below is a real RevRoutes itinerary—not a pin, shortcut or newly calculated alternative.

01Indiana

IN-62 Ohio River Corridor — Madison to Dillsboro

31.2 miles in the Indiana catalog region

  • 31.2 mi
  • Indiana

Exact saved Explore itinerary. The displayed distance follows this line; the full named road may continue beyond the selected start or finish.

Madison to Dillsboro is a southern-Indiana community-to-community drive, giving this list a clear regional itinerary. Its point-to-point format is useful when you want to build a larger day around two distinct endpoints.

Planning your Indiana drive

The shortest saved route in this guide is 20.8 miles; the longest is 31.2 miles. Choose one itinerary first and account for travel to its start and back from its finish. These are separate route picks, not an automatically connected road trip, and some can share road sections.

Check official Indiana traffic and road closure resources before leaving. Park entry, timed reservations, vehicle restrictions and visitor-site permissions can be separate from whether the public highway is open. Follow current local instructions over an old map or article.

How we chose these Indiana roads

This is a focused selection from the curated RevRoutes Explore catalog, ordered editorially for driving character and reputation, not mileage. We do not pad every state to the same number of picks; more roads remain available in the app. It is not an objective ranking or a claim that the editorial team has personally driven every itinerary. Distances describe the exact saved catalog lines and can differ from official byway lengths. The maps are planning aids—not live navigation or road-condition reports.

Check official Indiana traffic and closure resources before traveling. The label-free satellite imagery is supplied by USGS The National Map; map providers receive ordinary browser requests when a map loads.
