Written Directions

Start the route about 6 miles southeast of Fort Payne, AL where AL Route 35 meet's AL Route 176 (Little River Canyon Pkwy). From there just follow Route 176 south as it heads down to the Canyon and on to the end point at Dog Town.

Scenery

A nice twisty road along the rim of the beautiful Little River Canyon.

Drive Enjoyment

Challenging, well paved road, winding road with some twisty and sweepers that is a blast to ride!

Tourism Opportunities

Many scenic pull-off spots with picnic tables and places to get food and gas are available in the surrounding towns.

Some spots tough for a cruiser when it came to grades but manageable. What views! Did the entire loop back to starting point.

Great ride! Scenic, good pavement, curvy with several places to pull off to view the canyon and take pics. Be sure to check out Big Time Cafe 15726 AL Hwy 176, its a GREAT place to eat! Doesn't look like much from the outside, but food is fantastic, the servings are generous and the price takes you back in time. Daily specials are $5.25! One the best value little mom n pop diners I've ever come across!

Beautiful scenery - short ride, but very picturesque. We rode in September, but would be absolutely beautiful once the leaves start to turn.
