DO NOT ENTER
Coming to visit the mountains of Southeast KY or Southwest WV? If so then it is possible you have heard of the infamnous Outlaw Trails. If you are just now hearing about them then you are getting it straight from the source. These trails although the same by definition are treated diferently according to which side of the Tug River you are kicking up dust on. West Virginia does not take kindly to this term. Kentucky on the other hand, does not frown on the term Outlaw Trails, yet that is. Kentucky is in the process of unveiling the Hillbilly Trail system and then they may frown on the term outlaw trails as well.
Outlaw Trails are located on privately owned land, riding there is a privilege not a right!
