Black Mountain Cumberland Trail (Tennessee)
Black mountain is located on the Cumberland Plateau near Crossville, Tennessee. There is parking on top of the mountain to access the Cumberland Trail or just enjoy a day of admiring the view. You can camp overnight free, but you must register with the park service. The Cumberland Trail Conference web site can give you more detailed information.
There is a spring house on top of the mountain which you can get water.
The water is cool and refreshing.
An old homestead is located near the spring house. The lone chimney marks the spot.
This is what the Cumberland Trail marker looks like.
The best part about Black Mountain are the big boulders and steep cliffs.
Volunteers have made life easier by building custom stairs along the Cumberland Trail. This section leads to the primitive campsite.
Below the cliffs you will find more places to explore.
So, if you are in the area come and enjoy beautiful Tennessee.
