Savage Gulf State Park - East Trailhead and Ranger Station — Attraction in Dunlap

Spent the weekend hiking and camping. Started at the savage gulf entrance, we day hiked the the north rim trail, to mountain oak, to north plateau. Total about 10.5miles and camped at savage gulf campground. Then Saturday hiked the south rim, to connector trail to Hobbs cabin. Total about 13.5miles. Mile markers for this hike were a little off. The last 2.5 miles of the connector trail is Boulder field. Lots of places to stop for water if you have a filter. Campsites were spread out and comfortable. Highly recommend hiking here and camping. Lots of trails to connect and make your own loops. Great views along the north and south rim trails. Also very important, there are timber rattlesnakes here, so keep your eyes...

As the trail ends at the end there is a flat outcropping of rock mountaintop that offers a panoramic view of the valley for miles. Or, hike down The Great Stone Door, and rock stairway leading between massive rocks that split apart and will lower you into the forest canopy. Allow about 45 minutes each way in and out. Enjoy nature and this Tennessee jewel with your...

I think it is a good place to go and visit in...
