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.

Great ride with friends. The road gets a bit bumpy on the Southern half, but nothing unmanageable. Stay slow when peeling left at the fork and keep going. There is a section that has a steep downhill that looks rocky, but it's the pavement for traction. Keep riding and enjoy the views!

Rode on 5-2-2020 with a small group of 7(4 bikes). Ride was a great weekend ride. Great scenery and plenty to do to make a good day of it. Worth the 5 hour ride to get there.

My hubby and I just got back from a quick weekend trip to ride this route. Unfortunately the park is by appointment only which we did not know in time to schedule. We did get to ride the route and take some great pictures. The ride is nice and curvy with some great sites. It just wasn't long enough! My only real critic is that the overlook parking areas are in terrible shape for a motorcycle. The main overlook had so many potholes there was no way to avoid them! Add to that a mix of uneven pavement/gravel which made parking a lot more difficult.
