Mountains, trails, and the Blue Ridge edge.
Mountain trails. Big lakes. Quiet caves.

Bays Mountain is the largest city-owned park in Tennessee. Warriors' Path State Park anchors Kingsport. Cherokee National Forest opens more than 655,000 acres on the county's eastern edge. Three commercial caves, Bristol, Appalachian, and the wild Worley's, let you walk underground through Sullivan County's limestone bones.
