trail becomes a narrow footpath through the forest. Rough Fork then
travels along a wide railroad grade to Polls Gap. Rough Fork Trail is
available to both hikers and horseback riders.
To reach Rough Fork Trail from I-40, take the Cove Creek exit and
travel west along NC 276 to Cove Creek Road and turn right. Continue along
Cove Creek Road for 6 miles and turn left onto Cataloochee Road. Travel
3.1 miles along Cataloochee Road to the trail on the left. |
