Union County Tennessee Hiking Trails
Old Mill Trail
|
Big Ridge State Park
This trail is a short and easy hike that leads from the lakeside cabins to
Norton Gristmill which was built in 1825 and was privately operated until
1930. Along the way to the mill, the trail meanders along Big Ridge Lake
to Lyon's Spring Branch which supplied the water to make the mill wheel
turn. Be sure to look for signs of beaver along the way also.
