From the vistas atop Brasstown Bald to the cooling mists of waterfalls, scenic wonders fill this region.

[2] As stated above, the Russell–Brasstown Scenic Byway is composed of parts or entire lengths of numbered routes.

The portion of SR 75 included in the byway was established between May and August 1932 along the same alignment as it travels today.

[16][17] Later that year, both parts of SR 348 were connected, and the entire byway was paved.

[citation needed] These intersections begin in the southeast and travel in a counter-clockwise direction.
