About This Trail
It runs from Saltville, VA to Glade Spring, VA. The trail is 6.0 miles beginning at the Glade Spring end. The useable portion of the trail is close to the longest and tallest trestle. The new road you have to take if you want to keep going into Saltville is just a short cut through the railroad bed. It can be muddy at times. The trail ends at Old Mill Road, which is off of Highway 91, and there is parking on that road.
