About This Trail

The Catawba Trail is a trail developed and used by Native Americans that leads from the Carolinas northerly into Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania. Named for the Catawba people, several branches led from western Virginia, through West Virginia, Kentucky, and eastern Tennessee. It is a part of the Great Indian Warpath. Its South Carolina and North Carolina origination, sometimes called the Old Buncombe Road, passes through the Unaka Mountains and the Allegheny Mountains.
