The Routes
The routes are divided into four zones so you can experience the variety of what the surrounding backroads have to offer.
There are routes for everyone: mountains, curvy roads, relaxing two-lane roads, primitive mountain climbs. Each route description will tell you what to expect so that you can choose!
Travel time varies depending on how slow you drive, and how many stops you plan to take.

FAQs
-
Please prepare ahead by reading through the route description. These routes take you on country roads, so pay attention to directions and maps or the app. It is highly recommended you have a person riding with you to help navigate on most of routes.
I highly recommend researching your potential routes to find places you would like to stop for a visit or have a meal. With the large number of good restaurants in Chattanooga I also recommend saving your dinner meal for Chattanooga.
