It's hard to describe the natural beauty of Cumberland Gap, a natural pass that opened the way through the Appalachian mountains. The gap has been used as a transportation corridor since prehistoric times. The Cumberland Gap National Park contains more than 20,000 acres in Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia.
