How OddWay works

  1. Pick your route

    Give us a start and a finish. OddWay takes care of everything in between, including the two-lane roads you would never have chosen yourself.

  2. Find strange stops

    Filter by what you actually want to see, then check how far each stop pulls you off course before you commit to it.

  3. Take the OddWay

    Add the good ones to your trip, take the directions with you, and go stand in front of the thing.

Or skip the route and just go looking

Browse the whole index by what you’re after. Plenty of trips start with one specific thing you want to see.
