Posted by John Poltrock on

The Cherohala Skyway, one of the most stunning scenic drives in the U.S., has just been awarded Hagerty’s 2025 Road of the Year. Known for its winding curves, breathtaking mountain views, and peaceful drive, the Skyway connects Robbinsville, North Carolina, to Tellico Plains, Tennessee—and it’s less than an hour from our office at The Poltrock Team – REMAX Mountain Properties in Murphy, NC.

Explore One of America’s Top Scenic Roads

Running 43 miles through the Cherokee and Nantahala National Forests, the Cherohala Skyway reaches elevations over 5,400 feet. With panoramic views of the Appalachian Mountains, smooth pavement, and very little traffic, it’s a favorite for car enthusiasts, motorcyclists, and anyone craving a quiet escape into nature.

Unlike the adrenaline-packed Tail of the Dragon nearby, the Skyway offers a more relaxed, scenic experience that’s perfect for fall foliage tours, photography, and peaceful weekend drives.
