North Alabama Mule Train in Elkmont

Each year, the North Alabama Mule Train makes their way from Fort Payne, Alabama to Columbia, Tennessee picking mules and their owners up along the way on their journey to their grand celebration of all things Mule known as Mule Day.  Mule Day is usually the first full week of April, meaning the train passes through Elkmont on the Richard Martin Rails-to-Trails around the Monday of the festival.

Grab your camera, kids, and head for the Richard Martin Rails-to-Trails and watch this procession of mighty Mules pulling wagons of all varieties.
