Cherry Tree Iron Mountain Shelter

FREE USFS Developed Campground

About Cherry Tree Iron Mountain Shelter

The Cherry Tree Shelter was constructed right around the time that the AT moved away from its original route along Iron Mountain to the present route that passes through the Grayson Highlands. Some hikers who still followed the old route of the trail into the late 1950s reported staying at this shelter -- the only one west of the New River along the old trail route.
