Dogs (leashed)
The Pinnacle Overlook Loop Trail at Cumberland Gap National Historical Park is a short 0.4 mile loop hike that brings you above the Pinnacle Overlook Trail for a short nature walk with small views, between the trees, of the surrounding Cumberland Gap valley.
This trail is nothing special during the summer when you cannot get a great views between the trees of the valley, but in the fall and early spring the views from the lookout points are likely a lot better here.
By hiking this trail, you cross from Kentucky, into Virginia, and then back into Kentucky after 0.4 miles.

We simply ask that if you find our content helpful or useful when planning your next adventure that you consider making a small donation to help keep the site running.
