Written Directions

SR374 dead ends at US33 in the North and SR56 in the South. I normally get on from SR56 and drive North until it ends on US33.

Scenery

Most of SR-374 is tree lined and surrounded by hills. Much of the road runs through Hocking Hills. The road is very curvy and hilly. The road is a blast to drive and it is very rare that I have had to deal with traffic. On the couple of occasions where I came upon a car they have been kind enough to wave me by since the passing zones are few and far between.

Road Quality

Most of the road is well paved. Watch for a small amount of stones and possibly leaves/branches from the trees that overhang much of the road. SR374 is very hilly and twisty. There are a number of very tight corners, but they are well marked. And when they say 15mph they mean it. I was down in first gear with my peg scrapping doing 20mph in a couple of them. I have encounter very little traffic on it but since it runs through Hocking Hills park during the weekends the small section where SR374 merges with SR664 can be busy with cars and RV's.

Roadside Amenities

You ride past Hocking Hills State Park when SR374 merges with SR664. Other than that there is nothing but hills and curves. SR374 does not run through any towns.

Comment: great review by MCR, be sure to stop at jimbo's on 56 near the start of 374 for lunch, big burgers and tons of great vintage motorcycle hill climbing photos and trophies won by the owner (jimbo). the whole area has tons of beautiful twisty roads to explore. i rode it in late october and can't wait for a break in the weather ot go back!
