The Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail (OVNHT) is approximately 270 miles in length and includes portions of Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. The Trail commemorates the significance of the patriot militia that marched from the Appalachian Mountains and their foothills to defeat the British-led loyalist army at the Battle of Kings Mountain on October 7, 1780. This Trail Master Plan serves as a road map for establishing a section of the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail from the northern terminus in the Town of Rutherfordton, NC to the City of Chesnee, SC.
