Trail Overview
The Appalachian Trail travels through Laurel Fork Gorge, rarely straying far from Laurel Fork Creek. Probably the most popular hiking destination is Laurel Fork Falls, a 50' cascading waterfall. There are AT access points at both the NW end of the gorge (Hampton) and SE (Dennis Cove).
How to get there

- From Elizabethton, go southeast on US 321 through Hampton for .8 miles
- Turn right (south) on FR 50 (Dennis Cove Road) and travel 2(?) miles
- Look for AT access parking area on your left
