Area Activities

Middlesboro offers many memorable adventures. The Glacier Girl (P38) and Lincoln Memorial museums revere our past while the many trails along Cumberland Gap National Park, Cudjo’s Cave, Chained Rock and the Pinnacle Overlook fuel our psyche. It is the home of the Wilderness Trail where Daniel Boone and America’s first pioneers crossed the Appalachian Mountains.

Close by are the famous Cumberland Falls (the second largest waterfall in America). Once visited by England’s elite, you will be amazed with the parks trails, rafting excursions, and beautiful views including the only moon bow in the northern hemisphere.

The ultimate golfer will appreciate “The Oldest Continuously Played Golf Course in America” and “Wasioto Winds”, recently ranked 4th in the nation by Golf Digest, just minutes away in Pine Mountain State Park. A day’s trip to Knoxville, Dollywood, or the “Smokies” fills your vacation with fun, facts and flavor.
