This road has been described by other riders as providing twists, curves and elevation changes. I found it to be quite tame actually – there are only a few corners that I would label as ‘tight’ as it gently winds its way along through the forest as it hugs the banks of the Tionesta Creek. It’s never boring because it is full of (mostly gentile) curves and it surrounds you with the spectacular scenery of the heart of the Allegheny National Forest almost from beginning to end. I recommend it if you find yourself in the area.
