Kinda scary that this is a 'main' route and yet the road looks so very perilous if you're taking it any real speed. The road slims down pretty good and you definitely get the feeling that you're high up without even having to look off the side of the road and want to soil yourself.
I would imagine getting used to this road takes awhile, which would be why the out-of-staters take it so slow. As such we were hard pressed to make any time on the road, perhaps we were just unlucky. At least when you're putzing along in traffic you have some great views, that probably even look that much better in autumn colors.

Last time we rode it was July 2019, traffic was heavy, however it was around the 4th of July and it may have been on the weekend, don't recall now. Road was in great shape, the scenery is fantastic! Dry Falls and Bridal Veil Falls are pretty cool! A small trek to walk behind Dry Falls, but worth it. This appears to be the same ride as McR "The Waterfall Byway Along The Cullasaja River Gorge".

Coming out of the Highlands stay on HWY 64/28 to Franklin then continue on 28 (Hell Bender) to the Dragon. This is a great ride I have done it many times.

Dry Falls is currently closed June '08. But, Bridal Veil Falls is always open just a couple miles south of Dry Falls. Go east on 28 to Sapphire to Whitewater Falls, follow signs.

Twists and turns for the ride. Multiple beautiful waterfalls and forested mountains for the scenery. What is there not to like?
