Trail Overview

This is a trail full of interest and is the first off-road trail along the Kentucky Adventure Trail Main 2 section heading south. This trail has a hiking trail pull-off, some rocky off-camber areas, and some deep puddles. The river crossing at the southern end can be a bit deep; a wide entry away from the rocks staged across the river is suggested. There's an open clearing at the top of the ridge that has been logged and some beautiful tight tunnels of hemlock trees.

Difficulty

There are some flexy spots that have an off-camber of more than 18 inches. Also, the river crossing can be a foot and a half deep or more, even a full week after rain.

Fairly muddy since it was raining while on the trail. Rockcastle River crossing was easily maneuverable, even with some rigs with us on 33” tires.
