Ohio 556; 536's Forgotten Twin

MotorcycleRoads.com to MotorcycleRoads.com

The eastern end of route 556 is located in Beallsville and the western end is in the town of Clarington. Clarington is located on the Ohio river about 28 miles south of I-70.

Beautiful Southeastern Ohio farm country, nice rolling hills, well kept farms and forest.

Another excellent S.E.O. roller coaster! It baffles me how this road gets so little mention on forums considering its close proximity to 536 (known as "The Ohio Cousin of the Tail of the Dragon"). Plenty of elevation changes, a wide variety of turns and good pavement makes for one enjoyable ride. 556 is connected to 536 on the east by route 7 and on the west by route 26,making one of the best loops a curve hunting ride could find.

Like 536, there isn't much here except plenty of excellent riding..
