| The Mountain Goat Trail is a
rail to trail community outdoor recreation project to convert an
abandoned railroad right-of-way into a multi-use
recreational corridor between Grundy and Franklin
Counties on the Cumberland Plateau in Middle
Tennessee.
The Mountain Goat Trail Alliance is
working to revitalize the historic Mountain Goat
train line as a premier hiking and biking trail.
The first phase from Sewanee to St. Andrew’s is
complete, and plans are underway for the next two
phases from Sewanee through Monteagle to Tracy City.
This 14-mile section will link communities, their
schools, and the Plateau’s natural areas and
historic sites.
