Drawing the border between Kentucky and Virginia, Stone Mountain is home to Cranks Creek Wildlife Management Area and Stone Mountain Wildlife Management Area and State Natural Area. Mountainous, extremely steep terrain with long, deep hollows, heavily forested, primarily in hardwoods. No camping. Includes the unique wagon road, a hand-built road and tunnel that allowed those living on the Cranks Creek side of Stone Mountain access the railroad line on the Virginia side. Hunting and Hiking are both permitted in this area.
