View Devil’s Courthouse, Milepost 422.4

Elevation: 5462'

Looking up at the summit of Devil’s Courthouse from the overlook you can tell how it got it’s name. The rough and rocky summit has a devilish appearance. There are many folklore tells from the Cherokee to early mountain settlers that says the devil holds court in a cave within the mountain. There is a trail from the parking area to the summit with an inspiring panoramic view into the distant landscapes.
