It took longer than expected to arrive at the trailhead. 0000051934 00000 n
Almost considered going down to Sitting Bear trail instead but checked one more time for a spot and got lucky. Our 4 and 6 year olds held up great. 0000415557 00000 n

I would label the lower part of this moderate, but the upper part is definitely strenuous and you'll get a workout, but the views make it all worth it.Great trail of short distance and moderate difficulty. I’ve done both and just simply amazing!Wow—talk about a remote trailhead!

Got there around 10am, plenty of parking but by noon it was pretty full. The shortest route is via I-40 east to Marion. 0000022522 00000 n
The views are unreal at the top with tons of blueberries. One thing to keep in mind, if it rains while at the top on the huge rock outcropping, get off the rocks as they become very slippery.This hike leads to a beautiful 360 view. The pavement ends in a mile. The trails are well used but not well marked. At top, enjoy the first expansive view but also go around through wooded path to the right for another incredible view.Was a bit muddy. District Ranger

Beware of wrong advice from a previous review. It's a very clear trail walking amongst the woods until you see the clearing to an incredible view! Either trail will take you to the top. The views are phenomenal and there is a good amount of space to spread put from the other folks up there. At the top (at a popular camping spot), go to the right for the best views. 0000303431 00000 n
Well we did that and ended going .20 miles in the wrong direction. 0000415518 00000 n

You can see both of these peaks from the panoramic perch at Wiseman's View on the other side of the Gorge (near the trail to Linville Falls.) Highly recommend this trail!Short trail for amazing views! 0000196424 00000 n

After about an half mile, the summit trail turns left just before reaching the Jonas Ridge Trail (it's an obvious turn with a sign). One half mile down Gingercake Rd, stay left (follow Table Rock sign) on road 1264. 0000029890 00000 n
Pro tips: when you get to the fork in the trail, go left and follow the rocks. 0000007639 00000 n

It goes to the peak of Hawksbill Mountain, and the views are beautiful from there. The trail to the right is longer and more gradual. 0000005297 00000 n
hike up.
Last 1/4th of trail is steep, moderate if you're an experienced, in-shape hiker, strenuous if not. After hiking Hawksbill, drive about five miles down the road to the trail to the top of Table Rock Mountain, the other dominant peak on the rim of Linville Gorge. 0000026114 00000 n
