ITINERARY

Little Cove campground is a new campground that opened last year in South Cumberland State Park, in between the Fiery Gizzard and Foster Falls. After checking out the falls, we’ll hike about 5 miles in from Foster Falls with gentle elevation changes along the way and scenic overlooks of the gulf/gorge along the way. Depending what time we get into camp we could tag an additional spur up to Raven Point for an amazing overlook of the whole area.
