Highlights include beautiful views, waterfalls along the trail, and a well-marked path. Challenges are steep climbs and icy conditions requiring traction devices. Bringing extra layers, and sturdy footwear. Elevation gain 3031ft, length about 5.6 miles. Duration of hike will depend on trail conditions. Suggesting to bring lunch and snacks to keep up that manly energy!

If you are driving south on the Parkway, take the exit for the Lafayette Place Campground and Trailhead Parking, about 2 miles south of Exit 34B for the Cannon Mountain Tramway. A pedestrian underpass connects parking on either side of the parkway.
