Weather Along the Route
Forecast at the hour you reach each point, from the riding time. Leave Departure empty to leave now. Forecast from Open-Meteo.
US 64 follows the Ocoee River through a narrow gorge in the Cherokee National Forest, passing Lake Ocoee and a string of whitewater runs. The Ocoee Whitewater Center, built for the 1996 Olympic canoe and kayak events, sits beside the road. The curves are steady and flowing, with rock walls on one side and the river on the other.
