Elk View Overlook
| Elk View Overlook Breathitt County |
| The driveway from the main road to the overlook |
| Much of the view from the overlook is of reclaimed land that was strip mined by Breathitt County coal miners. |
| From the parking lot, visitors can access the overlook. |
| Informational signs along the path of the overlook explain the history and mission of Elk View. |
| Breathtaking Views |
| Elk have been reintroduced to the area, but deer and wild horses are also abundant here. |
| Numerous wild horses were near the overlook when I visited. |
