Trail Overview[edit]

A short trail at Roan Mountain State Park. Hike along the Doe River with two benches overlooking the river including great swimming spots. The trail is apparently a self-guided hike as there are several numbered stations throughout but no handouts were available at the trail head. The trail head sign is also mis-marked at 1.7 miles, possibly an outdated sign before some trail rearrangements.

How to get there[edit]

From the Visitor Center head south on 143 and turn right into the campground area. If not camping, park at the shelter. The trail begins to the left of the new playground and the rear of the clearing.

Route Description[edit]

A short hike along the Doe River beginning from the campground registration.

Typical Conditions[edit]

Being a TN state park, the dirt and gravel trails are kept in good condition. Some of the trail sections are steep, thus can be slippery after a rain.
