And boy does it sway... Roughly 300 foot span across the North Fork of the Holston River east of Wadlow Gap is maintained by Virginia Department of Transportation. Plank boards with dual suspension cables. Access is by gravel roads on either side. Recommend Route 614/Nottingham Road instead of Smith Hollow Road as the latter ends right at a private gate without a good turnaround.
