Un National Scenic Byway (O un lugar escénico Nacional en español), es una calle reconocida por el Departamento de Transporte de los Estados Unidos por su valor arqueológico, cultural, histórico, natural, recreacional y/o de cualidades escénicas. El programa fue establecido por el Congreso en 1991 para preservar y proteger los lugares escénicos de la nación, aunque también incluye a los lugares menos conocidos para ayudar a incrementar el turismo y desarrollo económico del lugar. El programa es administrado por la administración Federal de Carreteras.
Las carreteras más escénicas del programa son asignadas con un letrero que dice All-American Roads. La designación significa que tiene cualidades únicas que no se encuentran en cualquier parte de los Estados Unidos y en la cual son suficientes para al turismo. Para septiembre del 2005, había 99 lugares escénicos designados de las cuales sólo 27 estaban designados como All-American Roads, localizados en 44 estados (excepto en Hawái, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Nueva Jersey, Rhode Island, y Texas).[1]
