After the first 18 miles of slaying twisties, we will stop and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Appalachian Mountains as well as the highest point in Kentucky atop Black Mountain at Jebediah Memorial Overlook. We will continue annihilating 16 more miles of twists & turns finally arriving at the Dragonslayer Welcome Center and Gift Shop.
