repairs (est. reopening September 2026), but the western valley
ride is open, stunning, and ready for you. Shuttle up to Abingdon
and ride 16 scenic miles back through the South Fork Holston River
valley to Damascus. Same great scenery, wildlife, and trestles —
just a different starting point. You get beautiful views of the Holston Mountain range. Great chance to see bald eagles, otters, deer, and other wildlife.

farms, and the stunning Whitetop Laurel Creek. Hurricane
Helene damaged this section in 2024 — the Forest Service
is rebuilding and we'll be shuttling again by fall 2026.
