    Tips

    January 30, 2024

    Holston Mountain rises up to an elevation of 4,136 feet and features a 100-foot tall steel lookout tower at the top. You can't actually climb up the tower, but you still get pretty good views from the summit.

    Fun fact: This tower used to be located in Mississippi until 1943 when it was moved here to replace the wooden tower that burnt down.
