U.S. 176

U.S. 176 extends 19.29 miles north into the Tar Heel State from the South Carolina state line at Tryon to Hendersonville. The rural highway takes a winding course into the Saluda Mountains, traveling through town of Saluda between Cedar Mountain and Blakes Peak. Turning north by Lake Summit, U.S. 176 meets U.S. 25 at East Flat Rock and Tennessee Valley.
U.S. 25 Business combines with U.S. 176 northward from an interchange with the freeway along U.S. 25 linking with Interstate 26. The two routes overlap to NC 225 (Greenville Highway) in Hendersonville. U.S. 176 ends there while U.S. 25 Business (Main Street) continues north to U.S. 64 and Downtown Hendersonville.

NC 108 heads 3.42 miles northeast from U.S. 176 to a dogbone interchange with I-26/U.S. 74 in Columbus.
