Become part of this fall foliage tradition! This natural jungle gym is one of my favorite hikes in Virginia.
This is an awesome hike that has fun scrambling and great views. The drive to the trailhead will take 1 1/2-2 hours, and we’ll start with an easy 1.5 mile hike through the woods. From there, the mountain opens up into a 100 acre outcrop of granite rock, with rocks ranging in the size of “small pebbles to boulders the size of houses.” The grade is relatively steep, and you’ll have to use your hands to scramble 1/2-mile stretch to the top.
Bring: water, lunch, LAYERS (it’ll be cold), appropriate shoes (hiking boots or sneakers)
Club provides: ride in a car, gas money
