Northeast Backcountry Discovery Route (NEBDR) Map

3th Edition

Spanning 1,300 miles across eight states, the Northeast BDR is the longest and most state-crossing route in the Backcountry Discovery Route series—making it one of the most geographically and culturally diverse ADV motorcycle rides in the U.S.

From the rugged terrain of Pennsylvania to the remote forests of Maine, this route was built for adventure and dual-sport motorcycle riders seeking a true East Coast backcountry expedition. The NEBDR leads riders through a rich blend of dirt roads, gravel tracks, forest trails, and narrow paved byways, with each state offering its own distinct character—from colonial charm and farm country to dense hardwood forests, alpine lakes, and mountain ridgelines.

While individual sections are perfect for a long weekend ride, those who commit to the full multi-day journey will experience a deeply rewarding adventure, filled with challenging terrain, quaint New England towns, and jaw-dropping scenery that changes dramatically as you head north.
