Trail Overview

Dry Gap is a short step, out and back trail climbing along a ridge leading to a cell tower. The beginning climb is the most challenging part due to its steep nature; 4WD is recommended. The sweeping views from the ridge are incredible when no leaves are on the trees following the border of Virginia and West Virginia.
