Unaweep Tabaquache Byway
The Unaweep-Tabeguache Scenic & Historic Byway is one of Colorado's most scenic byways, located in western Colorado south of Grand Junction. It extends from Whitewater, Colorado to Placerville, Colorado, passing through the communities of Gateway, Naturita, Redvale and Norwood, with short spurs off the Byway to Nucla, Bedrock/Paradox & Disappointment Valley. An adventurous journey through history, geology, culture, and nature awaits travelers on the UTB.

Passing through the spectacular canyon country of the Colorado Plateau, the Byway exposes travelers to scenic natural, geological, historic, cultural, and naturally dark night-sky treasures of the Byway corridor. The Byway corridor contains vast tracts of public land that provide unparalleled recreational opportunities that contribute to the local economies. The Unaweep-Tabeguache Scenic and Historic Byway is a hidden gem in Colorado's State Byway program, having characteristics and resources of regional, state, national and global significance.
