Best Driving Roads in Texas

Texas's catalog spans Big Bend, Hill Country and long rural highways. The distances are substantial, so check fuel, heat and road access before leaving the larger towns.
These 6 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.
Twisted Sister RR-337 (Camp Wood to Medina)
56.79 miles in the Texas catalog region
- 56.79 mi
- Texas
Exact saved Explore itinerary. The displayed distance follows this line; the full named road may continue beyond the selected start or finish.
RR-337 links the Camp Wood area with Leakey, Vanderpool and Medina through the Hill Country. This 56.79-mile saved itinerary starts on the public main road just east of central Camp Wood and follows the reviewed line to Medina. It is the individual RR-337 drive, not the combined Three Sisters loop.
Route reference: TxDOT: RR-337 designation and corridor. This is a highway reference, not live road-condition information.

Twisted Sister RR-335 (Barksdale to SH-41)
29.08 miles in the Texas catalog region
- 29.08 mi
- Texas
Exact saved Explore itinerary. The displayed distance follows this line; the full named road may continue beyond the selected start or finish.
Start at SH-55 near Barksdale and follow RR-335 north through the Vance and Hackberry country to SH-41. This individual Sister follows the saved 29.08-mile corridor rather than the combined loop. Compare its start with the other Sisters: RR-335 meets SH-55 near Barksdale, not RR-337 directly.

Twisted Sister RR-336 (Leakey to SH-41)
25.79 miles in the Texas catalog region
- 25.79 mi
- Texas
Exact saved Explore itinerary. The displayed distance follows this line; the full named road may continue beyond the selected start or finish.
RR-336 heads north from US-83 just above Leakey to SH-41, following its own Hill Country corridor. The saved individual itinerary measures 25.79 miles; that is the mapped drive distance, not a claim about official certified highway mileage. Plan any return separately rather than assuming this map closes the Sisters loop.

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

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

TX-17 (Fort Davis to Balmorhea)
38 miles in the Texas catalog region
- 38 mi
- Texas
Exact saved Explore itinerary. The displayed distance follows this line; the full named road may continue beyond the selected start or finish.
TX-17 between Fort Davis and Balmorhea provides a defined-community West Texas drive. Its shorter mileage does not remove the need to consider heat, weather and the distances to your start and finish.

Planning your Texas drive
The shortest saved route in this guide is 25.79 miles; the longest is 98.44 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 Texas 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 Texas 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.
