Can you recommend me some nice hikes with less than 1500 feet of elevation gain and 5-6 mi or less? Lesser known hikes are super appreciated as are GPS coordinates!

I've been looking to explore Eastern Kentucky sometime. The furthest Ive gotten is the area near Mt Rogers VA.

I like hiking along creeks and views that you can get with minimal hiking or even from dirt roads are cool too.

Where is that photo taken?

I don't like national parks - 2 crowded

I want remote + free-flowing streams + fire roads + handmade trinkets made locally

pine mountain trail in kentucky is not for beginners nor is it well known. its roughly 120 miles long with a i think 14 and 27 mile stretch thats developed. lots of trails branch off of it. its not a park

Ok so how about some shorter loops or out and back segments

Either to a view or along a creek or just a trail you find special and underrated.

What about some ones that don't even appear on Alltrails? It is hard to parse local topo maps and see which are accessible - walkable trails and which are so poorly maintained as to be inaccessible despite existing on the map physically.

Also hard to know which areas are nice.

why should we help you after what you've done to this board?
You've chased away all the people who would have been willing to help, and killed all discussion anytime someone brings up the appalachians.

No one ever mentions Kentucky, probably because there aren’t many people around. For all the talk of “citifags,” places with large population centers are the places talked about the most.

Do you see a lot of people while /out/ in Kentucky? Or is it a hidden gem like Alabama?

I know how topo maps work - I'm saying just because a trail is shown on the topo map doesn't mean there's parking or it has been maintained in 20-30 years and is still accessible.

im the op and when im /out/ here i rarely ever see anyone. pine mtn trail does not need maintained as it is a ridge and very old already with many old home sites. you can access the trail head in elkhorn city ky or the top of pound mtn. plus a few others. in 120 miles i think there are only about six access points. ive only done 3 sections. id post pics but they are not on this computer. it would take a while to find them. there are topos online. its also known as the sawtooth. lots of bear and other wildlife. springs, campsites

sometimes youll see large piles of rocks covered with moss. this is a sure sign of old homstead sites. when settlers plowed their corn fields they would pile up the rocks to get rid of them.i have found stacked rock foundations. ive done some metal detecting too but never found anything valuable

Pretty nice people in general, nice weather with hot summers and cold winters, they actually get a descent snow in the winter. As with part of the south just make sure you stay out of any major cities and you'll enjoy your time there.
