Beginning at the Elkmont Campground, Little River Trail follows the Little River all the way up the mountain, where it dead-ends. Along the way – 2.4 miles in – the trail meets Huskey Gap Trail, near Campsite #21. Before this, Cucumber Gap Trail merges with Little River Trail. Extending one more mile, Goshen Prong Trail veers off to the right. Rough Creek Trail heads down to the left after another 0.8 of a mile. Halfway on this section, the trail runs by Campsite #24. The trail then climbs up 1.8 miles to lonesome Campsite #30. Little River Trial is 6 miles total in length.
