Hurricane Gap Road is a 2-lane gravel road that leaves US 25 east of Hot Springs to the north, taking you up about 1000 feet in elevation to the Rich Mountain Fire Tower Road in the Pisgah National Forest. There is dispersed camping on Rich Mountain Fire Tower Road. The Rich Mountain Fire Tower is one of only six remaining fire towers along the Appalachian Trail.
