CR 162 is the county road that runs all the way up to St. Elmo. It begins as pavement down low and then soon transitions to dirt, climbing up a gorgeous mountain valley. Along the way it follows a steep mountain stream, and past a mountain lake.

    This is a decent road ride during the off season (before Memorial Day weekend and after Labor Day). In the summer the traffic can be crazy. A cross bike would be great for a ride all the way to St. Elmo. I've ridden my road bike, even on the gravel part for a couple of miles when it's hard packed.
