Maybe it’s the changing leaves, maybe the shorter days, but autumn can give pause. So too can Trails Less Traveled, our new video series featuring noteworthy paths in Great Smoky Mountains National Park that carry as much of the majesty as any other trail—and typically with far fewer visitors. Take a minute as we introduce you to Cove Hardwood Trail that starts in the Chimneys Picnic Area on US 441, the second installment of this new series on YouTube. Find a link to the YouTube video in the comments.
