Wayah Road from US19/74 to US64, or the reverse route.Scenery
Hard to keep your eyes on the road at times! The west end starts you going up a gorge tracing the stream with some waterfalls mixed in. Once you reach the peak (the AP trail crosses around here) there is a large lake at the top. Nice winding road around it then the fun begins; lots of tight curves and more elevation changes. Keep your eyes on the road: not much in guard rails protecting you from some rather large drop-offs! Eventually you "wind down" on some less technical roads and at a little gas station/convenience shop. IIRC, this station has REAL gas (no ethanol).Drive Enjoyment
I'm rating this as a three. Some sections are real nice; some are dirty. The west side of the road is hard for me to read where it looks like there's loose gravel, but it's really not.Tourism Opportunities
Not a whole lot between the two main roads. Take this drive for the scenery and the curves.Top Images

We went from 64 to 74, I would recommend heading the other direction if possible. You'll get a better view of the stream and falls. Very nice ride and the road was good.

Great road. Found out about it reading a bulletin board at Deals Gap. Not a lot of traffic. Great scenery, good elevation change.

Just to update on this road: We rode it in June and it was fairly torn up with maintenance work. It's dirty and gravelly even when it's good, a little more so now. It may be cleaned up by the fall. Otherwise, it's a longish segment that's scenic, but not a good road to run fast, if that's your wont.
