About Justin P. Wilson Cumberland Trail State Park
The Justin P. Wilson Cumberland Trail State Park became Tennessee's 53rd state park in 1998. In 2002, the park was renamed for Justin P. Wilson, in honor of his commitment to complete this spectacular 11-county corridor. The Cumberland Trail follows a line of pristine high ridges and deep gorges lying along Tennessee's Cumberland Plateau, linking State Park lands, State Natural Areas, Wildlife Management Areas, and National Parks. Tennessee State Parks works with the nonprofit community to support the acquisition of land and the construction and maintenance of the trail. The completed trail corridor will encompass the largest acreage within a Tennessee State Park unit, and extend 300 miles from Cumberland Gap on the Tennessee, Virginia, and Kentucky border to the Tennessee River Gorge, near Chattanooga.
