Pikeville sits in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains and is defined by monumental ambition. The city actually moved a mountain and diverted the Levisa Fork River to create the Pikeville Cut Through. Today, this valley is home to a thriving downtown, the University of Pikeville, and a massive regional medical center. Residents enjoy direct access to rugged mountain trails, a deep connection to local history, and community events that draw thousands to the downtown streets.
