Quick hike with moderate grades, but clear wide path. AMAZING view at the top with both the rocks and the lookout tower. Trailhead is found at the yellow gate on Westernport road, not well marked, but easy to follow once you get there. This trail crosses the Meadow Mountain Trail, but is extremely overgrown in this area. Overall, big reward in the view for a quick hike.
Very good
Open 2track trail/road 1.1 mile incline to summit featuring a lookout forest tower and a very cool rock out cropping. Awesome vista. Great pics. Return trip far easier.
Beautiful view, steep uphill the whole way
great view.....long hike up
If this is the fire tower trail, agree with prior poster. Trail is basically a gradual incline road to a very nice overlook. Climbing the fire tower was the most adrenaline induced part of the hike. Great pics!
easy walk, beautiful view, fire tower n lots of rocks
Worth all five stars in my book for the view at the top. It truly is one of the best -- maybe in Maryland. The trail up is unremarkable, mostly grass covered. Fairly steep grade, but not the steepest -- just a steady work out about a 1/10th of a mile in for the remainder of the trip. Absolutely gorgeous with leaves down as the views are great on the way up. BUT the rocks -- stunning!!
