This is one of eight different hiking trails within Natural Tunnel State Park. It is a short, easy, .13 mile trail that takes you to an old cabin in the woods. The cabin was built as part of Carter's Fort in 1748. It is believed to be the oldest house in Scott County, Virginia. It follows a creek and is a very simple trail. The cabin is open and you can walk inside.
Natural Tunnel State Park is in Scott County, about 13 miles north of Gate City and 20 miles north of Kingsport, Tenn.. To get there, from I-81, take U.S. 23 North to Gate City (about 20 miles). The turn-off to the park is at mile marker 17.4 on Rt. 23. Take Natural Tunnel Parkway about one mile east to park entrance. This particular trail is an extension of the Tunnel Trail and is the connector along Stock Creek to the Carter Cabin.
