Reviews
This is not an overly difficult hike. There are sections with a bit of an incline that could be challenging. The trail is narrow, but well maintained. The fire tower is sturdy, but a steep climb to get up. There are 360 views from atop the tower. You can see all of Kingsport from the top. Parking inside Bay’s Mountain is usually pretty easy, but there are busy days when it can be a bit more difficult to find open spots, especially near the trailhead. There is also an entrance fee to get into Bay’s Mountain.
