About This Trail
The trail is 20 miles through Cumberland Gap National Park. It begins at Wilderness Road Campground and ends in a park. It was established in 1966 and now follows portions of the Ridge Trail and the Gibson Gap Trail. Some of the old trail blazes are still found with short wooden posts with the outline of a bear carved in. It is possible to go camping via back country permit.
