Tri-State Peak is a mountain landmark in Cumberland Gap National Historical Park near the saddle of the Cumberland Gap, named for its location at the tripoint where Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia meet. The tri-state marker stands at an elevation of 1,990 feet, and the site is about 1.2 miles from the park visitor center along the Tri-State Peak Trail, which also connects with the Gap Trail and Object Lesson Road Trail. Beside the state-line marker, another monument marks the Royal Colonial Boundary of 1665, recognized there by the American Society of Civil Engineers.
