Wagon Train Adventure

A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME EXPERIENCE!
Full Day Outing with Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner

Go back in time and ride with a genuine wagon train! For generations, local mountain folks have gathered in Big Sandy Mush for the Labor Day Wagon Train. This is not a tourist event擁n fact, it痴 not publicized at all. It痴 just neighbors getting together to drive their wagons and enjoy good company. Randall Glen joins in on the train, and we invite a select few guests to ride in our wagon or as an outrider on horseback for an adventure you will never forget. On Labor Day Saturday we値l gather for a mountain biscuit breakfast, then join the wagon train right here at Randall Glen on the original pioneer wagon road. We値l ride through the woods and then wind our way up the mountain to Haywood Gap, where we can look down on Big Sandy Mush thousands of feet below.

At Haywood Gap the wagon train stops to rest the teams. After a hearty country lunch at the Gap we値l head down the other side of the mountain, passing through rich farmland on the way to the encampment at Crabtree. Reaching the encampment at mid-afternoon, we値l unhitch the team and unsaddle the horses, then get together with our fellow wagoneers. You値l have a chance to swap stories with other drivers and get a closeup look at their rigs and teams. We値l get a fire going and cook up a fine outdoor dinner. If you like, your friends and family can meet you at the encampment and join us for our campfire dinner. We bet you値l hear some tall tales, see some fancy riding, and hear some good mountain music. As the day winds to an end, we値l load up the horses and catch a modern-type ride across Beaverdam Gap and back to Randall Glen.
