This road is fun! I've been riding it for years and has always provided a thrill and gorgeous scenery. The SC side is not in good shape anymore and will suprise you with some loose spots if you aren't careful. Once you reach the summit the NC side is new and very smooth and confidence inspiring. Overall a great riding experience for the sportbike and cruiser/touring motorcyclist alike!

Hiway 276 from the NC-SC state line has been totally repaved from Ceasar's Head down into Brevard, NC fall 2008. Super smooth but still twisty so watch your speed as you will want to ride faster than the road will allow.

As of 9/26/2020, there are two articles related to Caesar's Head. One takes you from Brevard ("Caesar's Ascent") and the other from Hwy 11 ("Caesar's Head"). Going to attempt a cross post in both. Rode Hwy 276 on 9/19/20 from Cherokee Foothills Scenic Hwy 11 to Brevard, NC. Video is not excellent, but will give you some ideas of the road quality as of 2020. https://youtu.be/Pe-zINWqMz4 Picking up from Hwy 11, it's a spirited ride. The road condition has deteriorated with some spots where the road has been undermined and some signs of pavement sloughing. (Rated 4 for the excellent curves, but only "fair" road condition) Automobile traffic is courteous. Plenty of pullouts allow slower traffic to let others pass. The park at Caesar's Head was closed when i passed. It was a Saturday and they had reached capacity. Watch for people parking on the roadside on days like this.
