Trail Overview
One of the flattest and easiest trail within the Roan Mountain State Park trail system. A portion of this trail is handicap friendly including an accessible bridge from the shelter to the boardwalk through a portion of wetlands. It can also be used to connect between the park cabins and group camping or the regular campground.
How to get there
Leaving south on 143, the most direct access is at the shelter before the cabins. This access is mid-way through the trail.
Route Description
Beginning at a park shelter, this trail begins with either crossing the river for a short hike, or walking along the river until it meets Fred Behrend Trail.
Accessible from this trail is the Fred Behrend Trail.
Typical Conditions
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.
