The Cherohala Skyway crosses through the Cherokee and Nantahala National Forests thus the name “Chero…hala”. The Skyway is becoming well known in motorcycling and sportscar circles for it’s long, sweeping corners, scenic views and cool summer breezes.

"In every walk with nature, one receive far more than he seeks." - This John Muir quote reminds us of Huckleberry Knob off the Cherohala Skyway, around mile marker 8. There is a parking area here, with good information on the trail that follows an old Forest Service road that goes through grassy areas and through a wooded patch to its terminus near the summit. From the parking area you will head north over Oak Knob to the Huckleberry summit. The round trip is roughly 2.4 miles.
