Distance: 17 miles
Time: 28 minutes
Start: Black Mountain
End: Bat Cave
When you start out in Black Mountain, you can explore the shopping center of the town by going to the Black Mountain Town Square. If you wish to see greenery without having to drive towards the wilderness, you can head to either Lake Tomahawk Park or Veterans Park.
As you ride southward, you will climb up the mountainous areas that are close to the Eastern Continental Divide which should give you a panoramic view of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Foothills. Leaving the rougher terrain behind, you will pass through lush hardwood forests and a deep valley.
Continuing on your way to Bat Cave, most of your surroundings will be sprawling fields, old farm buildings, and streams coming from the mountains. As the road begins to flatten out, it should still keep you engaged due to the many twists, turns, and switchbacks.
