Blue Ridge Parkway — Asheville to Montreat

United States · measured from OpenStreetMap geometry

22.8Miles
41.3Per mile

Blue Ridge Parkway runs 22.8 miles between Asheville and Montreat. We counted 940 corners along it, which works out at 41.3 a mile — corner after corner with no let-up. It runs past mountain peaks, cliffs, open water and a nature reserve. That is busier than two thirds of the roads we have measured in the United States, where the median is 25.1 a mile.

Ridden together with NC 251 and US 74A it makes about 17 more miles of the same kind of road.

How we measured it

Corner counts come from the road's own geometry in OpenStreetMap, not from ratings or votes. Every bend above a threshold of curvature is counted once, so two roads can be compared directly. Nothing here is crowdsourced and nobody paid to appear.
