Trail Overview

Overstreet Creek climbs from just over 1,300 feet in elevation to 3,250 ft, where it meets the Blue Ridge Parkway. This four-mile-long route is mostly gravel, but some of the steep sections include larger rocks. The namesake creek parallels the road for most of the length, and several waterfalls are visible. Near the top, sweeping views of the Sedalia valley make this trail a great option for a winter ride when the leaves have fallen. Before intersecting with the Blue Ridge Parkway, a couple of small campsites are available.

Difficulty

It's not a totally maintained gravel road, but any all-wheel drive with a little clearance should be fine.

Normal
Was Very foggy and dark when I was there. Have been on this road many times. Condition was normal to better than normal. There had been some downed trees (already cut up) at the top part of the road. I use the word road as it is a road, just bumpy on the upper hill part. I have force our family stock Subaru Outback through here several times. Even see a guy in a Honda van here before with his family (bumpy ride) this is a great backroad to the parkway that is worth the drive if you just like being in the woods without scratching up your vehicle.
