Car trips and scenic drives with 68°

Whether you drive a classic car, a convertible, an MPV, a small city car, or a large sedan—alone, as a couple, with friends, with family, or with your pet—there are a thousand ways to enjoy a car trip. Some people like to plan everything in advance: map out their route, choose the roads, spot the stops, book accommodation, pick places to visit, and build each stage before leaving. Others prefer to set off more freely, with a general direction, a few ideas in mind, and the option to adapt the route as they go.

A drive with friends, a couple’s sightseeing getaway, a family road trip, a trip with your dog, or a big discovery route: every trip has its own pace. Some are done as a journey, changing accommodation each night to move from stage to stage. Others are planned as a hub-and-spoke trip, from the same base, with several day loops to explore a region without repacking every time.

No approach is better than another: they simply match different desires and different ways of enjoying the road.

That’s exactly why 68° was created. The app doesn’t force you into one way of traveling: it helps you plan, adapt, and enrich your routes to fit the way you like to hit the road. Whether you like to organize every stage, keep some room for spontaneity, travel point-to-point, or explore from one accommodation, 68° supports you before you leave and throughout the trip, with one simple goal: keeping the pleasure of driving, discovering, and enjoying the journey as much as the destination.

An all-in-one app for drives and road trips

68° is built on a simple idea: bring together in one app everything that makes planning and taking a sightseeing car trip simpler, more consistent, and more enjoyable—whatever your way of traveling.

Instead of switching from one tool to another to map a route, choose scenic roads, look for places to see, find a stop, pick a restaurant, locate a gas station, plan accommodation, or follow your route, 68° brings all these uses together in a single app.

This all-in-one approach isn’t meant to replace the pleasure of planning or the freedom to improvise. On the contrary, it removes the little frustrations that often make organizing harder: scattered information, switching apps, last-minute searches, or stages that are hard to coordinate.

So you keep what matters: choosing the roads, staying flexible, being free to adapt your route, and the pleasure of driving to discover.

Create itineraries that suit you

With 68°, creating a car route isn’t just about choosing a start point and a destination. The app lets you tailor your trip to the way you travel, the time you have, the context of your stay, and the kind of enjoyment you’re looking for.

You can prioritize the fastest route to reach a region efficiently, the start of a loop, or an important stage. You can also choose a more direct trip for necessary transitions, without necessarily taking the highway, or opt for more enjoyable roads to take in landscapes, villages, viewpoints, and detours that make the trip worthwhile.

Whether you drive a classic car, a convertible, a small car, a large sedan, or a family car, 68° helps you build a route that fits your pace and your vehicle: make good progress, take your time, avoid major roads, mix it up, or make the road itself a real part of the experience.

Carefully selected points of interest

A great road trip or scenic drive isn’t just a beautiful road. It’s also everything you discover along the way: a charming village, a medieval town, a lively small city, a viewpoint, a natural site, a monument, a restaurant, accommodation, or a pleasant stop to take a break.

In 68°, points of interest act as a real tourist guide built into your route. The app helps you spot what’s worth the detour, what can enrich your trip, and what can turn a simple transfer into a real moment of discovery.

Whether you’re planning a day drive, a weekend, a hub-and-spoke stay, or a point-to-point road trip, you keep a clear view of your route. That way, you can easily identify towns and villages to visit, places to see, possible breaks, and interesting stages—without juggling multiple apps.

GPS navigation designed for car travel

Once your route is ready, you can follow it directly in the 68° app. Navigation guides you throughout your trip, with your route at your fingertips and the useful information you need to drive with more peace of mind.

In an older car, a small car, or a vehicle without a built-in screen, a simple smartphone mounted on a holder is enough to fully enjoy the app. You keep your route visible, with no complicated equipment or special installation.

For newer cars equipped with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, 68° can also be used directly on the vehicle’s screen, depending on your setup. You get a more comfortable display to follow your route, find your stages, and travel with navigation suited to your road trip.

Whether you’re planning a scenic drive, a weekend, a hub-and-spoke stay, or a long car route, 68° helps you stay on track while enjoying the pleasure of driving and discovering.

Accommodation suited to travelers and vehicles

Because a sightseeing car trip can be planned well in advance or adapted as you go, 68° helps you find accommodation that matches the way you travel. Some people like to book every stage before leaving, while others prefer more freedom and choose their stop at the last minute, depending on fatigue, the weather, or the day’s plans. In both cases, the app makes it easy to search for hotels, guesthouses, campsites, and other accommodation along the route, around a stage, or near your location.

Good accommodation isn’t just a bed for the night. With family, with a pet, looking for a great address, a charming hotel, or simply a practical, budget-friendly option—everyone has their priorities. Here too, 68° helps you spot the accommodation that best fits your trip.

For car travelers, certain services can also make all the difference. Parking, for example, becomes essential when you’re driving a classic car, a convertible, an older car, or a vehicle you particularly care about. Being able to park in a private, enclosed, or secure lot lets you enjoy your stop with more peace of mind.

After a day on the road, being able to have dinner on site or within a few hundred meters of your accommodation is also really appreciated. Not having to get back in the car means you can truly unwind and end the day calmly. That’s why 68° highlights accommodation that, in most cases, offers a simple evening option: an on-site restaurant, a good place nearby, or practical services for more comfortable travel.
