Trail Description

Anthony Creek Trail is a single trail connecting the Cades Cove picnic area to Bote Mountain Trail. It is often combined with connecting trails to reach locations like Rocky Top, Thunderhead Mountain, Spence Field, and Russell Field.

The trail follows Anthony Creek for the first two miles before narrowing and becoming quite steep. The last portion of the trail before reaching the junction with Bote Mountain is fairly strenuous.
