This is a great 4-5 hour trip. It is all 2 lane divided highway until you hit Blue Ridge, then once you get through Copper Hill, the scenery starts to get awsome. 74/64 is great , just make sure you hit that portion early in the morning before the river guide buses slow you down. Has some sharp curves so if you are not comfortable dragging your floor boards slow down a bit. Hwy 411 before you hit 52 sucks (traffic) but before hand it's kinda cool riding straight roads in the country. I can't do 52 justice, it's beautiful. There is a pull off on the crest of the road about 1/2 mile before you get to the Fort Mt. State Park. Rode this 2 up and had no problems. GREAT RIDE!

This was a great ride. I generally don't like to ride in the same place twice but after going through he National Forest, I needed to turn around and do it again. Going in the North direction, you have to turn into traffic to get some of the views so headed South, I was able to pull over more often. I was skeptical on taking 411 back since it's a highway but I enjoyed this ride as well. I went during December and there wasn't any white water so it would be interesting to go again when the water is supposed to be high. There were many signs during the park ride warning of traffic congestion. Since I rode during the week, there was no congestion whatsoever. Great ride!

Beautiful ride in the fall, just make sure to check the schedules of all the local town fairs that will block the main roads through their respective towns.

While I have not done the Highway 74 portion, the trip across Fort Mountain alone is worth a trip. Take note you can change the difficulty based on the direction of travel. It is an easier trip from Chattsworth to Ellijay and therefore more challenging from Ellijay to Chattsworth. Plenty of safe overlooks on the Chattsworth side and truly breathtaking during the fall. So if you have time, hit it up both directions!

74 has lots of traffic, follows a river, scenic with some nice views. Sweeping curves
52 has a great lookout! Twistiest part of route IMO
411 was very straight and not technical
