Pine Mountain Trail

The Pine Mountain Trail is located on the border between Kentucky and Virginia. Open to non-motorized traffic, the trail is currently under construction with approximately 28 miles already on the ground. Ultimately, the trail will be nearly 120 miles long and will run from the Breaks Interstate Park to the Cumberland Gap National Park. Pine Mountain is an extraordinary mountain. The mountain was formed through a geologic process that began more than 275 million years ago. Pine Mountain is home to the greatest diversity of plant life in Kentucky.
