Take 400 north to Dahlonega. Go through the square [stopping for a leg stretch and some ice cream] and turn left on Highway 9. At the three way, go straight towards Suches. This is a beautiful and fun road but know that it does have blind decreasing radius turns. Passing through Suches, turn right on 180. Near Vogel state park you will have some more scenic twisties and hairpins. Come to a T at highway 9 and turn right - heading back to Dahlonega. These wide switchbacks are a spirited way to wrap up a fun ride. Just beware - everyone now knows about this, too, so it will be crowded. Also has police and ambulances on standby because of the motorcyclists [primarily]. I live in Alpharetta and I can enjoy this quick jaunt in about a four hour turnaround, including pleasure stops along the way.
