The Nantahala National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, where deep drainages like Stecoah Creek and the Nantahala Gorge shape the human geography. Settled pockets are found in the broader valleys and gaps, including Stecoah, Hidetown, and Beechertown. Historically significant transport routes are etched into the terrain, from the Tululah Railroad following the contours near Bear Creek to the long-distance footpaths of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail and Bartram Trail.
