After two miles a spur trail to the left affords a beautiful
view, and is a good destination for those people who decide not to
go all the way to the top. The last mile is steep, and the view
seems to come from nowhere as the: trail tops out and you gaze
across a wide valley to high balds and the Blue Ridge Parkway in the
distance.
Directions:
From the Pisgah Ranger Station, go 3 miles north on U.S. Highway. 276
and turn left onto FS Road 475, the road to the State fish hatchery. The
trailhead is on the right after about 0.5 mile. Parking is available for
15 vehicles in a paved lot.
