With over 85 miles of hiking trails, historical sites, overlooks, camping, and guided tours, Cumberland Gap provides opportunities for visitors of all ages and abilities.
As a Roving Volunteer, you will hike the trails and walk the pathways within park boundaries. During these excursions, or "roves," you will provide interpretive information to park Visitors, hand out trail maps and brochures, and answer Visitor questions. Roving Volunteers are also expected to pick up trash they find along the trails and report any issues they encounter to Visitor Center Staff.
