Dennis Cove Gravel Out-and-Back

The Dennis Cove Out-and-Back delivers a rare treat in the mountains: A rolling, flowy gravel road that lets you carry speed and enjoy the scenery without constant grinding. While there’s still plenty of elevation gain to earn your views — and an optional bonus climb for those craving extra suffering — the majority of the ride is fast, fun, and wonderfully rhythmic as it winds through woodlands, open valleys and classic East Tennessee mountain scenery.
