This is a small sampling of the beautiful farm and mountain roads in this area. Highly recommended. Long straights, nice turns, swooping hills. All around good times.


2. Loch Raven Drive

This quick hitter is amazing fun. Drive it during the week, as it is partially closed on weekends. Fantastic curves, scenic views, right off the highway. But, beware that there is a lot of human and deer traffic in this area.

3. Falls Rd to Prettyboy Dam

Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=MD...4&via=1,2&z=12

This can be easily added onto the end of the Loch Raven run. Falls road is a gorgeous back road through farm country. The roads around Prettyboy are intense. They're a bit choppy, but there are long, sweeping turns and switchbacks, and a few nice places to take photos.

4. Race Rd to River Rd

Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=MD...a=1,2,3,4&z=13

Alternate: Can switch out parts of Race Road for parts of Ridge Road

Pretty fun, cut up by busy connecting roads. Thin, hilly roads. Great alternative to the highways going from Jessup to BWI.

5. Waugh Chapel to North Beach

Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=St...ia=1,2,10&z=11

Stunning back roads
