A viewing platform and information panel provides the closest access to Cowee Mound, site of an important Cherokee center prior to the American Revolution.
The sight is not marked at the highway (as of April 2023). As you near the coordinates, look for an old-style rail fence on the river side of the road. If you are approaching from the direction of Franklin (heading north), it is not far past the state historical marker you will pass on your right.
The platform has a wheelchair ramp.
