Devil’s Racetrack

Devil’s Racetrack is an in and out hike along the Cumberland Trail. The trail begins in a section of Cove Lake State Park north of Knoxville. The hike parallels I-75 through the woods crossing over a boulder field before climbing toward the overlook. Along the way we will pass 2 waterfalls and cascades. The Devil’s Racetrack overlook is a collection of large rocks and offers one of the best views along the Cumberland Trail. The hike is rated moderate for crossing the boulder field and the elevation gain up to the overlook.

Depart at 8:00 a.m. from Lakeside Realty Parking Lot
1 hour drive time

We will resume July hikes with some changes. Social distancing is still in order on and off the trails. We will not be setting up carpools. Each hiker should drive on their own or you may desire to ride with one other person that you know and feel comfortable with. Both hikes are shorter drives, about 1 hour. We will still meet at Lakeside Realty parking lot for directions, take a vehicle count, but there is no need to get out of your vehicle to gather as we usually do. Thank you for adhering to the protocol during this time.
