Written Directions

Start in Portville, NY and head north on Rt 305. End near Belfast

Scenery

This route meanders through the rolling hills and farm lands between Cattaraugus and Allegany Counties. There are a few scenic vistas in along the northern part of this route. Beware, you have to be on the lookout for some Amish buggies between Cuba and Belfast. If you have the time, take a quick loop around Cuba Lake.

Drive Enjoyment

This road has nice pavement the entire route. There aren't any switch backs, twisties or gut wrenching curves, but some nice sweeping curves and elevation changes. This is just a nice cruise if you want to get out and enjoy the sunshine.

Tourism Opportunities

There are many places to stop on this route. A good starting point is Sprague's Maple Farms for a great homemade breakfast. You can also hike on the trails at Spraugue's and learn a little bit about the process of making maple syrup. They also have a few animals such as swans and quail on the property. There is a small convenience store in West Clarksville about 8 miles in. There are plenty of stops in Cuba, including Cuba Cheese Shop. In Cuba, you can stop at the Copper Keg, Charlie's, a couple of gas stations, Mcdonald's among the usual small town amenities. Just north of Cuba you can make a loop around Cuba Lake and stop at Murdock's, Carpies or Moonwinks. Not too many stops between Black Creek and Belfast. This route ends at Rt 19, also list here on motorcycleroads.com I would highly recommend Sprague's breakfast. Even if you are headed south on this route and make this you last stop. They serve breakfast all day. They provide a great atmosphere and have a small gift shop.
