Written Directions

Get on PA Route 339 in Mifflin, PA and simply take 339 south toward Mahanoy City, PA.

Scenery

Lots of scenery to enjoy as you carve-up some twisties!

Drive Enjoyment

This would be one on THE best roads in the state IF the tarmac was more consistent. The middle third of this road is a bumpy, patched-up oil and chip affair - fortunately it's very scenic, which makes-up for the condition of the road! When/if this section ever gets resurfaced, it will be off the chart awesome! As it is - PA 339 provides some great sweeper action at the top (smooth tarmac), some scenic and twisty rough patches in the middle, followed by much better road conditions and nice tight peg-scraping turns as you descend into Mahanoy City. Very few intersections, driveways, or traffic. Its definitely one to recommend - you won't ever be bored on this road! I give it 4 out of 5 stars.

Tourism Opportunities

There are plenty of places to eat at Bloomsburg, which is a college town just 7 miles to the West of the intersection of Rt339 and I-80. My favorite is the Quaker SteakLube which is off exit 34 near the mall. Mahanoy City has a few diners but I've never tried them. Between the two points you wont want to stop, except to take a few pictures.

One of my favorite roads, definitely needs some pavement for the one section. We have a loop riding up north on 125 and back south on 339 with a bunch of road in between. What a great ride we try get there and crank on it when ever we can.

Did the road 2 times. Great ride, except for the ending-gets a little rattling over the bad pavement. Otherwise, great scenery and technically challanging road.

This is a great road. I took back roads from Wilkes-Barre to Mocanaqua and then took Rt. 239 from Mocanaqua to Nescopeck. I then picked up Rt. 339 in "downtown" Nescopeck. I rode it to Rt. 924, then took Rt. 924 into Hazleton, then to Rt. 309 and back to Wilkes-Barre. Rt. 339 is a great ride, as far as I took it. Uphills, downhills, tight turns, little traffic, nice countryside, etc. The road is pretty good until you get to about 12-15 miles from Mahanoy City, then it turns to crap. That's why I got on Rt. 924. If I ride it again, I'll go all the way into MC and take Rt. 81 back to WB. Overall, I say this ride is a 7 only because of the road.
