Description:
The Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway (DBBB) is a premier off-road adventure route located in Eastern Kentucky, winding through the rugged landscapes of the Red River Gorge and the Daniel Boone National Forest.
Unlike a dedicated off-road park, the DBBB is a massive network of existing (often primitive) county roads designed to promote sustainable adventure tourism while preserving historic rights-of-way.
