Bullhead Trail, Mountain hiking trail in Sevier County, Tennessee.
The Bullhead Trail extends for 5.9 miles through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, reaching an elevation gain of 3,820 feet to Mount Le Conte.
The trail network emerged following the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 1934, preserving paths once used by early settlers.
Local rangers maintain interpretive programs along the trail, educating visitors about the mountain ecosystems and regional environmental conservation efforts.
Hikers need to carry sufficient water supplies and appropriate gear, as the trail presents challenging terrain with numerous switchbacks and rocky sections.
The trail passes beneath a distinctive heath bald formation that resembles a bull's head, visible from multiple vantage points along the ascending path.
