Unaka Trail (Hooks Branch Road #31B)

Dogs Off-leash

This short out-and-back defunct road turned trail follows the route of an old 1900's mining road and terminates at the old mine works. It has not been open for over 30 years and is grown over in most spots with large saplings. After your climb up, turn back and head down the way you came.

Since it technically has no trail name, we named it "Unaka". That was the original name of the National Forest in the area before it became the Jefferson.
