About Ocoee Adventure Center Bike Tours
Fall, winter and spring are all great times to tour the Appalachians. The fall colors are amazing from the bike perspective! Mid winter rides offer great open mountain vistas and warm, dry weather in our area. No crowds- just the wildlife and us! Early spring rains create roaring creeks and waterfalls that provide us with spectacular vistas along our rides.
Day one starts off with a long downhill ride and then continues with some up-and-down but mostly level riding along the Hiwassee River. Our overnight stay is in a lodge overlooking the Hiwassee River.
Day two begins with a climb up to Oswald Dome on Chilhowee Mountain. The road is low gradient and we take a break half way up. A van with bike trailer follows the group and if you decide the ride is a bit more than you want… just hop in for a lift to the top. There is a great loop ride on top of the mountain with super vistas and then a six mile descent to Parksville Lake. The two-day trip ends here and you will be taken back to the outpost.
