Trail Overview

William's Gap, FSR 346, is typical of the forest service roads in the area. It is a reasonably well-maintained gravel road with occasional potholes and small ruts from erosion. The road dead ends, it is an in-and-out FSR, at a camp spot that has cell service. This is a seasonally closed FSR, and the 2024 MVUM map lists the open dates as 3/15 - 1/1. Exact dates are subject to change; please check the current Blue Ridge District MVUM map to verify before you head out. Please report any garbage dump sites you see to the Blue Ridge Ranger District at (706) 745-6928.

very nice road to go down. I think it will be a get winter trail for the views. Nothing exciting but beautiful! If you don't have 4x4 or good brakes I would come in off 60 instead of coming off Copper Gap. That hill is extremely steep for a good distance!!!!!!

Easy trail little above forest roads. One way in, one way out with a turn around and an ATV bike trail coming off the turn around. Didnt see any views really with the leaves grown in and didn't see the surprise the other reviewer mentioned. not a bad trail to explore if nothing else to do.

Great road. Vistas & views throughout the entire trail. There's an interesting find halfway up. Not sure how it got there.... hard to miss it. I won't give it away....
