Reviews of Piney Knob Trail System
"We hiked the grape Smugglers path very well taken care of, we’ll marked with very beautiful spots to stop and take pictures. There were enough up-and-down to keep it Interesting without being too difficult. We really enjoyed it. It’s an excellent park to go for a nice stroll. We’re going back today to do another section of it. We really enjoyed it that much."
"I was in town for work and had a few hours in the afternoon for a quick hike before dark. Finding the access road was a little confusing as it was unmarked and while the road was paved, it was one lane making passing other vehicles near impossible. I had a few minutes of fearing I was literally driving on the trail or one way road and had to ask a local I passed if I was on the right road. We hiked the smallest trail as it was getting late. I was worried about the 2 mile hike as I have back, hip and leg issues but found the trails easy and well maintained. We made great time due to the ease. I'd recommend for kids and pets. I'm sure the rhododendrons are beautiful in the spring. Great hike, I just wish I'd had more time to do some longer trails. I do want to note something I found really odd. I'm from Tennessee, so not too far from my neck of the woods so the landscape isn't that much different than home. There were NO birds even though it was in the high 60s with pleasant weather. It was dead quiet. Maybe that just happens in November there? We saw no wildlife there at all, but heard something big crashing through the trees at the bottom of the little valley we were hiking at one point which was a little shocking after the silence. I was working just over the ridge, maybe half a mile away, for 4 days. Heard one song bird briefly the entire time I was there. Additionally major cell phone issues with everyone on my crew even though we had good service and my compass was having reading issues. Haven't seen any other comments concerning the trails (or area) having weird vibes so maybe it was just us. The trails were great, just an off almost sterile feeling at the time of visit."
"The dirt and gravel road to the parking area can be difficult in a sedan/crossover. Trails are well marked and maintained. Shady pathways make for a great summer adventure with your dog."
"Signage would help but nice secluded trails for hiking or biking along side a small creek with waterfalls. Google maps has the last bit wrong. When you turn off 1366 cross the rr tracks and go up the middle dirt road. To the right is a private road with a no trespassing sign. To the left is a house. The road in the middle goes through a gate. It is steep in places and rocky. We got a little concerned a few times about making up the inclines in our non-four wheel drive SUV. We eventually came to a closed gate and parking area. Glad we found it."
