How to get there
From downtown Kingsport, TN:
- Take Fort Henry Drive/TN-36 toward Colonial Heights.
- Turn left at stoplight by Food City onto Hemlock Road. (Warning: Red Light camera intersection this direction.)
- Follow Hemlock Road under railroad underpass. The park ranger station is just inside the main entrance.
From I-81:
- Take TN Exit 59 (Kingsport).
- Turn NW on Fort Henry Drive/TN-36.
- Turn right (north) onto Colonial Heights (by Zoomerz, Sunoco). (Warning: Red Light camera intersection in this direction. Come to a complete stop if the light is yellow or red before making turn.)
- Continue on Colonial Heights road as it makes a sharp left and then right over railroad tracks.
- Turn right (east) on Hemlock Road. The main park entrance can be seen.
Trailheads are in several different locations, so refer to the specific trail descriptions.
Trails
The park offers the following trails to explore:
A couple mile loop around most of the park campground can be done on Lake Hollow, Connector, and Lakeshore trails.
Devil's Backbone and Fall Creek Loop trails also make a nice combination.
Riverbank Trail no longer connects across Fall Creek Road with Holston Bluffs Trail.
