On-Site Hiking
A chance to hike is waiting at every turn on the Mountain, with a trail system spanning from the sun-drenched, rocky ridge tops at the mountain’s crest to the cool, damp creek bottoms and hollows at lower-Mountain. Test your endurance and climb to the rocky overlooks of the Cat’s Paw Ridge, or take in a more relaxed, contemplative experience along the Double Branch Nature Trail. Along the way learn about the local plants and animals that inhabit the mountainside with our well-versed, knowledgeable team of guides.
