Do not be afraid to pull over and stop if you notice something spectacular.
Ask around at the campground for the most picturesque landscapes. You can find a lot online and in brochures. However, the best way to discover the hidden gems is by asking locals or frequent visitors. Not every view is going to be perfect.

It’s okay to enjoy the scenery and not take pictures.
