Off-road on the Goat Trail to Buzzards Roost and Cataloochee Valley

We ride the Goat Road to Buzzards Roost and then on into the Cataloochee Valley. The ride features water crossings, vintage bridges and awesome views.

As noted in the video, the overpass at Cold Springs Creek Road (Harmon Den WMA) on I-40 is being rebuilt so you can’t access I-40 from FR 288 at this time.
