This winter, Atlas Obscura and Nissan will celebrate the spirit of rule-breaking “rogues” with Rogue Routes, a series of five experiences at wondrous locations celebrating the trailblazing spirit of iconoclasts, daredevils, innovators, and the 2021 Nissan Rogue. And now, with this giveaway, you’ll have a chance to take part of the experience home with you!

To celebrate our partnership with Nissan, we’re giving away 10 copies of our exclusive new glove-box book, Rogue Routes, written by our cofounder Dylan Thuras. This limited-release book is our ultimate guide to unique and unexpected road trips across the United States. Take a drive to discover beautiful botanic gardens from Maine to Florida on our East Coast Garden Party, or witness close encounters in New Mexico’s desert landscape on the New Mexico Loop. Rogue Routes will not be sold in stores! But you still may be able to get your hands on a copy.

Here’s how to win: We want you to find the most rogue place in our database of wondrous places. Really, that’s it!
