Gate City

Gate City lies along the North Fork Holston River in Virginia’s Appalachian Ridge-and-Valley country, where wooded ridges and narrow river valleys extend toward the Tennessee border. It is the county seat of Scott County, placing civic life and local services at the centre of this small southwestern Virginia community. The town was known as Estillville until 1886, a reminder of its older role in the region’s settlement history. U.S. Route 23 connects Gate City with nearby Kingsport, Tennessee, while the surrounding roads lead into the rural hills of Scott County.
