I like to escape to this road once in a while. :) Phantom Canyon Road is a hidden gem in Colorado that offers a scenic and historic hike through green-spotted canyon walls and twisty turns. Once a bustling railroad connecting mining districts, the road now leads to ghost towns like Wilbur and Adelaide, adding an eerie touch to the adventure. With narrow-gauge railroads, tunnels, and the iconic Adelaide Bridge, this road is perfect for a leisurely drive or a stop to explore tree-covered ravines and textured vertical walls. Just remember to take it easy on the gas pedal and enjoy the journey!
