countryside drive

Scenic rural journey

A countryside drive is a leisurely trip by car through rural areas, taken for pleasure rather than to reach a destination.

The appeal lies in scenic roads, open landscapes, and escape from urban density: We took a countryside drive to see the fall foliage.

Sometimes called a Sunday drive, though it needn't happen on Sunday.
