While you are still in Brevard, you can take a quick breather at Franklin Park, Silverstein Park, or Bracken Preserve before you head out on your motorcycle. After leaving the city behind, you will come across Pisgah National Forest. You can get a better look at the natural scenery if you head up to Art Loeb Trailhead.
Continuing northward on the right side of the loop, you will pass by many examples of natural scenery including Looking Glass Falls, Moore Cove Falls, Justus Cove, Pisgah Ridge, Bullpen Cove, etc. Before you transition onto the northern section of the loop, you will follow alongside the Pigeon River.
Looping back southward towards Brevard, you will get to check out even more of North Carolina’s natural beauty including Lake Logan, Hickory Flat Cove, Sunburst Rocks, Little Bird Falls, Sunburst Falls, Courthouse Falls, etc. Though this road is a challenge for even the most experienced riders due to the technical curves, there are instances of relaxing sweeping turns and sudden changes in elevation.
