What is the best route from Denver to Dallas?

My son is starting college in Dallas and we are going to be driving there to move him into the dorms. I’ve never been to Texas before and am worried that I might get confused driving in such a big state. I’m wondering, what’s the best route to get from our home in Denver to Dallas?

Seeing your kid off to college can be a lot, but it’s exciting too! The best route from
Denver
to
Dallas
is by taking highways I-25 South and US-287 South.
The trip will take you about 11 hours and 40 minutes and you’ll travel a total of 795.6 miles one way.
With a drive of this length, you might want to break it up over a couple of days. If you stop near the halfway point, you could spend the night in
Amarillo
, Texas.
Road trips are a great way to embark on a new adventure, and you’ll want to be prepared on all accounts. You took the time to pack your favorite clothes, so why not take a minute to make sure you’re getting the best deal on
