A scenic forest road ascending Unaka Mountain on the Tennessee-North Carolina border — accessible from Unicoi County adjacent to the Tri-Cities coverage area — offering panoramic views from bald summits at over 5,000 feet elevation across a mosaic of farmland, forest, and ridge systems extending into both states. The Unaka Mountain Wilderness trail network connects to the summit balds. A breathtaking high-elevation drive-and-hike combination accessible as a day trip from Johnson City or Elizabethton.
