Trail Overview

Kings Gap Mountain Road is a gorgeous historical route that cuts through the outside edge of the Dugger Mountain Wilderness Area. This trail features mines and caves, along with beautiful creek beds formed from fast mountain water run-off. The mild inclines and declines can give the average overlander the thrill they have been craving, or the weekend warrior the getaway they have been looking for.

Difficulty

While most of the trail is flat, the water run-off can carve deep ruts in the side of the trail and cause erosion. Wider vehicles may have no choice but to drop into the rut to cross the path.
