THE RIDES:
Nantahala Nightmare

Wayah Loop
The 65 mile-loop known as the Wayah loop is the new addition for those folks looking for more than 45 miles and less than 106.5 miles. The 65-mile ride begins at 8:30.

Robbinsville Loop
Riders may opt to complete the 45-mile Robbinsville Loop, beginning at 8:00 a.m. This track takes riders through Nantahala Gorge to Stecoah Gap and back.

Subaru "Sag Wagons" will follow each ride offering rider support. Riders can register by calling NOC's Guest Relations Office at (888) 905-7238. Post-Ride Recovery: Celebrate your achievement with a post ride meal at River's End Restaurant. Ride support is being provided by our friends at the Graham County, Swain County and Franklin Area Chambers of Commerce.
