Signed at two sections along North Carolina Highway 226 for two separate purposes: The first connecting the community of Little Switzerland; the second as a bypass west of Bakersville.

==Route description==
The first section, a two-lane mountain highway also known as the Diamondback by motorcycle enthusiasts, begins near Woodlawn, from US 221. Once on the NC 226A, the first sign is a notice to truckers indicating steep winding road ahead, trucks not recommended. For the first , it marginally increases in elevation, yet curvy, as it follows westerly along the banks of the Armstrong Creek then Three Mile Creek. At Holifield Cemetery (on right), NC 226A begins to quickly climb in elevation with an sensational amount of curves, as it climbs Grassy Mountain. Reaching Chestnut Grove Road, in Little Switzerland, the worst of the climb and curves is over, rising over from its start. Heading east now, NC 226A meets back with NC 226 at Gillespie Gap, just from the Mitchell County line and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

After , it reconnects with NC 226 at Loafers Glory. The road is not nearly as curvy as its first section, but has a posted speed limit of on its more curvy eastern half.
