Written Directions

Warren, PA. South out of town on US RT6 to US RT62. Most of the ride is along the river nice scenery. Exit to the right, over the Allegheny River and follow US RT62 along the river and at 24 miles is Tidioute, PA. Nice old bridge crosses the river to Tidioute where theres food and drink. From Tidioute head south on US62 8 miles to Tionesta, which is a popular junction for bike trips. Food and fuel are abundent here. Theres river recreation, state park and, yes... more rides from Tionesta. The PA666 ride starts midway between Tidioute and Tionesta. More Allegheny river road lies to the south as RT62 crosses the river. Some riders head south out of Tionesta on PA36 to the PA36-PA66 crossroads to continue further into Allegheny Park.

Scenery

The Allegheny River road is nice scenery with canoes and others enjoying the waters. There are small stores with gas and supplies every few miles.

Drive Enjoyment

The road is patchy at times more so in the upper 8-10 miles due to winter wear and tear.

Tourism Opportunities

Country store with gas right after Tidioute. Road to an overlook nearby. State park and lake in Tionesta with camping and recreation. Usual small stores in town.

Motorcycle Road Additional info

I probably ride to or through Tionesta 8-10 times a season. Its a popular bike destination and jump off for other rides.

I ride this road several times a year. It has become one of my favorite roads to ride. However, I normally ride north. As of late 2014, PennDOT was working on the road, and there is some new asphalt down in some places. Nice, sweeping corners are always a good time had by all.

Scenic cruiser route. No pretensions of technical or crazy rides here. This is about the sights, the bike, you and the road. While in the area check out 666.

Just resurfaced! A lot of canopy with some openings, beautiful ride..I did ride the speed limit however it's one of those you could ride 35 mph or 80 mph some long sweeps and had no traffic in the way (Sunday morning).
