Ashland, a small town in extreme eastern Kentucky, perches on the banks of the Ohio River. The city's downtown features large, ornate homes built by early industrialists.
The trail begins by following Forest Road 6105 for the first mile before entering the woods. A trailhead sign to the right of the road will mark the trail. The trail will go from ridgetop to streamside, through laurel thickets and beside rock cliffs. After hiking 1.3 miles from the road, you will reach Mark Branch and the connection to the Sheltowee Trace.
We offer a compact version of Go-Kentucky for mobile users, allowing you to access just the information you need on the road. Of course, you can still use the full version of Go-Kentucky on your mobile device just as you can on your desktop.
