Virginia Creeper Trail was constructed in the late 1800s. "The Virginia Creeper Trail got its name from the Virginia Creeper Vine that grows along the trail," Miller said. "But, I like the version that says the Virginia Creeper was so slow going up those steep mountains that you could get up and walk. So it was named the Virginia Creeper."
