North Carolina's Last Alternate Route!

Where can you find more than 190 steep, climbing curves in just 12 miles? The Diamondback - North Carolina's last alternate route!Sweeping curves, amazing scenery and cool mountain breezes make the Diamondback, NC 226A, one of  WNC's last great mountain roadways.


The Diamondback, NC's 226A is loaded with switchbacks looping almost 360-degrees. Runs of S-curves climb and twist sharply as they snake through lush green forest in route to the Blue Ridge Parkway just above Spruce Pine, North Carolina.
