February 6, 2021This is one of my favorite trails. Right now, trail is very snowy and where it isn't snowy is solid ice! Bring poles and snow spikes.
November 27, 2020very rocky in some area. I don't recommend for small children
November 21, 2020Nice 2 hour hike. Great views from the overlook.
November 20, 2020Amazing views all along. Great family hike for older kids. Rocky!
November 17, 2020AT to blue line to yellow back to AT. Beautiful trail along ridge
November 15, 2020Great views, rugged landscape but not difficult to traverse. My dog Borr loved it.
November 14, 2020November 6, 2020October 24, 2020Great! Park at the overlook and take AT to the actual trailhead.
October 21, 2020October 17, 2020Awesome hike on a beautiful fall day!
October 16, 2020October 16, 2020Lots of different scenery and beautiful lots Awesome trail! one of my favorite hikes I’ve ever done.
October 14, 2020October 10, 2020Very crowded
October 4, 2020It was great! Beautiful weather. We couldn’t find parking at the trailhead so parked down Skyline Drive a bit and added another mile to the hike. It was almost like 3-4 hikes in one with the different trail types, terrain and scenery. A bit crowded but not enough to bother. Definitely would recommend.
October 3, 2020October 2, 2020Trail was great and the three overlooks had great views!
October 1, 2020September 27, 2020Slippery, but amazing!
September 26, 2020September 19, 2020September 18, 2020Great hike! Accurately rated as moderate due to rocky trail but it’s really not a strenuous hike. Beautiful overlooks, well marked, and hardly saw anyone else until we got to Stonyman summit.
September 15, 2020September 4, 2020August 12, 2020Super fun and kid friendly hike
August 9, 2020Wanted to hike the loop clockwise and started from the correct side of the parking lot but kept right too soon and ended up back on the counterclockwise route. Later missed the left turn leading away from the skyway Stoney man parking lot because the highlighted route on the map didn’t actually match the trail. Beautiful views and lovely greenery, not too rocky
July 27, 2020Nice hike, but I’d call it moderate. The overlook is beautiful. Hike is mostly shaded. The end is unimpressive but you can join up to another trail for the way back.
