U.S. Route 70: Sparta to Crossville - Tennessee | Real Roads, Real Drives [Repost]

Описание: 🚙 Drive America’s Highways for 29 miles east along U.S. Route 70 from Sparta to Crossville, Tennessee — a scenic plateau crossing through historic small towns.

U.S. Route 70 between Sparta and Crossville offers a classic drive across the Cumberland Plateau, blending mountain edges, forested ridges, and small-town charm. The route begins just outside Sparta, where U.S. 70 and U.S. 70S meet, and climbs gradually eastward. Along the way, the drive passes through communities such as Riverwatch and Bon Air, each surrounded by wooded hillsides and quiet rural landscapes. The plateau’s terrain creates a mix of winding stretches and straighter open runs, giving the drive a balance between ease and variety.

Further along, the highway reaches Pleasant Hill, a town with deep historic roots as one of Tennessee’s early mountain settlements. Here, U.S. 70 shifts southeast, winding through the community before continuing its approach toward Crossville. The road here is flanked by rolling countryside, dotted with farms, hardwood forests, and the occasional ridge cut. Entering Crossville, travelers skirt the northern edge of Lake Holiday before the highway turns southward to connect with U.S. 70N, leading into the city center. The drive then continues east through downtown Crossville, ending at the junction with U.S. Route 127, a major north–south corridor that ties into the rest of the Cumberland Plateau.

This stretch of U.S. 70 highlights both the natural character of the plateau and the historic importance of the highway as one of Tennessee’s key east–west routes. The combination of scenic plateau views, small-town character, and a gateway to the Upper Cumberland makes this drive one of the more pleasant sections of U.S. 70 in the state.
