펜트리스 카운티 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

The John Muir Trail runs flat along the Cumberland River here between Leatherwood Ford and the Grand Gap. There is a dispersed camping site along the middle of the segment.

This rocky outcropping is warmed by the sun during the day and makes for a fantastic picnic spot with spectacular views over the Cumberland River and Angel Falls. You get more great views of the river as you descend the John Muir Trail just below the overlook.

The main campground in the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area acts as a parking area and trailhead for a bunch of different trails and forest roads. The trail signage in Big South Fork is great, and it's easy to find your way back if you decide to deviate from your planned route. Some trails are rougher than others, but they are marked accordingly and intersect each other frequently.

The bridge is a truly remarkable formation that closely resembles the slender and graceful arch of a man-made bridge. This is right next to the parking area and easily accessible both from the trail and as a quick stop off the highway.

Hazard Cave is an epic open cavern with plenty of space to walk around inside and feel like you are in an underground amphitheater. There are some benches just under near the entrance. The trail is well marked, well maintained, and fairly easy.

Slave Falls is a small but high waterfall which tumbles into the sandstone crescent below. You can access the fall from the north or the south side of the creek.

The small out-and-back trail to the arch is remarkable and definitely worth it! True to its name, the natural bridge is long and thin and looks more closely resembles a tree that has fallen across the path than a stone formation.

The lodge is a rustic getaway experience which is only accessible via the Big South Fork trail system. You can learn more about room prices, meals, and the experience on the CCL website here: https://www.ccl-bsf.com.
