Inman genomlider krigets inferno och det enda som håller honom uppe är hoppet om att få återse Ada. Hemma i Cold Mountain är Ada på väg att gå under. Efter faderns plötsliga död får hon allt svårare att sköta gården. Men hon får oväntad hjälp av den mer livserfarna Ruby, som lär Ada överleva av det som naturen ger. Efter att ha blivit svårt skottskadad deserterar Inman för att återvända hem. Men den långa vandringen mot Cold Mountain blir en mardröm. Sårad och jagad drivs Inman vidare av sin längtan efter Ada.
