It is a gigantic trough—a chain of valley lowlands—and the central feature of the Appalachian Mountains system.

The Cumberland Mountains are a mountain range in the southeastern section of the Appalachian Mountains. They are located in western Virginia, southwestern West Virginia, the eastern edges of Kentucky, and eastern middle Tennessee, including the Crab Orchard Mountains.

Until 1996, when the Cumberland Gap Tunnel opened, US 58 ran only inside the commonwealth of Virginia.

For most of its alignment, it closely parallels Virginia's southern border with North Carolina.
