Cumberland Trail: Daddys Creek Gorge

ALERT: The Soddy-Daisy Chapter of the TTA has changed its name to the Scenic City Chapter and will post its hikes under this new name starting in July.

Saturday, June 4 —Daddys Creek Gorge, including part of the Cumberland Trail, 6-7 miles out-and-back, difficult. This is an exploratory expedition to a trail described as “ultrarugged and ultrascenic.” It includes a roaring whitewater stream, bluffs, overlooks, rock houses, boulder fields, an arch, a trailhead at the Devil’s Breakfast Table, and the turnaround point at Obed Junction. What more could you ask for? Well, perhaps a shorter drive to the trailhead and fewer rocks on the trail. Regardless, we’ll meet at the parking lot off Durham St in Soddy Daisy, just off Dayton Pike, at 8:30 am. Please register with hike leader Betsy Darken, 423-718-2060.
