Rating: Moderate
Cades Cove's easternmost trail. Anthony Creek Trail begins in the
Cades Cove picnic area. Vehicles must leave the area one hour before sunset.
To stay overnight, park by the ranger station. The trail follows Anthony
Creek to its headwaters. After three miles the trail reaches backcountry
campsite #9. To camp in the backcountry requires reservations. After another
mile the path merges with Bote Mountain Trail. Destinations include Spence
Field, the Appalachian Trail, and Rocky Top. Rocky Top holds one of the
Park's best vistas. |
