The Western Skies Scenic Byways was one of the first dedicated byways in Iowa. This 142-mile route weaves through four rural farming counties in Southwest Iowa and offers unexpected opportunities for cultural, historical and outdoor activities.
And, that is not leaving out some spectacular sunrises and sunsets, something this drive is noted for.
Plan to spend some time in the community of Elk Horn, which is one of the largest concentrations of Danish immigrant descendants in the United States. Here you can experience the Museum of Danish America. and the only authentic, working Danish windmill in America.
Swing into the little towns that dot this route and experience all sorts of small mom and pop operations. And then there are those small diners.
