Poor Fair Good Excellent Extraordinary
Description: Hilly, 32-mile road loop from Downtown Fort Payne. Passes through scenic DeSoto State Park and Mentone. Features shady, curvy, low-traffic roads and one long, 2-mile climb. There is an optional 2-mile side trip to DeSoto Falls. In all, this is an example of a perfect “tourism bureau” bike ride: Downtown start location, easy navigation, good roads, fantastic scenery and good restaurant selection.
