Hiking
Embark on an extraordinary adventure to Sand Cave in Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. This 250-foot-wide cave, born from wind erosion over the years, invites hikers on the Ewing Trail and Ridge Trail to experience its awe-inspiring, beach-like sands covering an entire acre. Step into nature's geological masterpiece and marvel at the captivating wonder concealed within the park's rich landscape.

Hiking
This is one of my favorite hikes because you get to bad ass things, and one hike you go up on top of the ridge and go to the right and you’ll have white rock overlook, then you followed the trail down the ridge to sand Cave, which is one of the craziest places I’ve ever seen. Top five favorite hikes of all time
