The road is closed to vehicles 20 feet or longer in length. Over 55 miles of hiking trails meander through eastern deciduous forest in this 20,000 acre national park. Trails lead to Hensley Settlement, a restored mountain community located atop isolated Brush Mountain. Backcountry campsites are located throughout the park and require a backcountry use permit, which must be picked up in person at the Visitor Center. The 160 woodland sites welcome tent, trailer, and RV campers.
Electrical hookups are available.
Hot showers are located at the comfort stations. Exhibits, artifacts, and a film tell the story of the Gap as a transportation corridor.
