Visit the area where American settlers were able to access the west. Beautiful areas to hike and take in nature.
The Pinnacle Overlook boasts one of the most breath-taking, spectacular views in all of Appalachia. Located just a few miles from the visitor center, you can follow the signs up a windy black top road to the top of the Cumberland Mountain. At the top you will reach a parking lot, and just a few steps away from the parking area you follow a short path to the overlook pavilion, where can stare in amazement at the very best scenery that Appalachia has to offer. Views into all three states (KY, TN, and VA) can be seen from this overlook. Not far from the overlook is the Three-State marker, where you can stand in all three states at one time.
