Cape Cod 6A

Cape Cod's route 6A is the Old King's Highway that runs from Sandwich,MA to Orleans, MA. It is much more scenic than driving on Highway 6.

There are pretty houses with the picket-fences. Just like I imagined what Cape Cod should look like.
There are diners, antique shops, donut shops and farm houses along the route.

We also stopped off a the Roland C. Nickerson State Park. There are easy hiking trails to Flax Pond and Cliff Pond.
The Rail-to-trail bike trail runs right through here. So you can park at the state park and bike north or south.

Route 6A end at Orleans and merges with Route 6 but splits off at North Truro and head North to Provincetown to become Bradford St.

It's hard to look around and drive at the same time. YIKES. Mad dangerous but you won't be able to help it.

Route 6A is the scenic route heading towards Provincetown, A.K.A. Old King's Highway. 6A travels along the Cape Cod Bay side of Cape Cod.

It doesn't really look like a highway it more of a road. And on the side of the roads you'll see cute NE houses looking just like it did back in the days. There are also all kinds of antique shops, a few general stores, donut huts, etc. We stopped by Taylor-Bray Farm in Yarmouth to say hi to the farm animals.

It's so cool to look everything that I would probably drive mad slow just to see some stuff. It makes for a more interesting drive than going on Highway 6 where you see nothing.

Highway 6 travels along the center of Cape Cod and all you see is trees on either side. Kinda boring so if you want a more interesting road, Route 6A is the road to take.

Route 6A merges with Highway 6 eventually at about Orleans. You can't get lost. Eventually the road splits again at about North Truro and it goes all the way to Provincetown.
