Ragged Mountain Nature Area, Reservoir Road, Charlottesville, VA, USA
If you’ve been itching to get out and hike but haven’t had the time yet this semester, this hike may be for you! Ragged Mountain has an excellent 6.7 mile loop with about 1000 feet elevation gain that goes around the reservoir and is a very short drive from UVA. This hike is great for both beginner and experienced hikers looking for a bit of a longer stroll through the woods. Alltrails is posted below if you’d like more details on the hike.
