Written Directions

Start in Walhalla, SC and head north on route 28, cross the SC/GA border, stay on route 28, cross the GA/NC border, and head into Highlands, NC (then end point).

Scenery

Beautiful National Forest scenery. Mountains, Rivers and Waterfalls ... a great sampling of 3 states in a nice 30 mile run! Travels through the Sumter National Forest and later Nantahala National Forest.

Road Quality

Plenty of tight curves as well as some long sweepers, nice transitions. For the pavement, the majority of the road is in good shape. Once in the forest area you can twist the throttle and drag your knees.

Roadside Amenities

Not a lot between Walhalla and Highlands, so, fill up before you leave Walhalla. No restaurants or other facilities for miles.

Comment: Took Hwy 28 from the from Bryson City NC through the tip of Ga to Clemson SC. It's an incredible road with lots of tight turns and great scenery. Watch your gas as there are not a lot of stations for long stretchs. Probably the best road I've ridden to date.

Comment: Nice ride and also has a few stops to view the river. Had the wife on the back so it was not a hard ride for her either.

Comment: 1) There are a few gas stations & convenience stores available between Walhalla and the Highway 107 split. To make this ride a more varied round trip, after reaching Highlands, NC, continue on Hwy 64 to Cashiers, NC. Then turn right and return to Walhalla on Hwy 107. On 107, you will pass the Walhalla Fish Hatchery (you can visit if you are interested) and Cherry Hill Recreation Area and Oconee State Park.

Comment: This road is in the north west area not south east. This is a fun road but not an all day event. Check out the Devils Triangle in Tenn. Look it up on the web.
