Ricketts Glen
State Park
Length: 1.9 miles
Rating: Moderate
This trail takes you to the highest point on Red Rock Mountain (elevation
2,449 ft). In mid-June, the beautiful mountain laurel is in bloom, followed
in late June to early July by the rhododendron. The best view is during the
limited time that the fire tower is open (fire season in the spring and
fall). In mid-July, the high bush blueberries bear fruit, and in the fall,
you have an awe inspiring view of the fall foliage encompassing the
surrounding hillsides, making this trail a pleasant hike at any time of the
year.
