Craggy Pinnacle

HOME
Blue Ridge Parkway
This trail offers the most exceptional views for the least amount of walking. The trail starts at the Craggy Dome Parking Overlook that is just north of the tunnel that is in view from the visitor center. Hikers are rewarded with a 360 view from its summit. The trail is a tunnel of rhododendron, gnarled sweet birch trees, and wildflowers.
Summit Elevation: 5,892 feet
Hiking Distance: 0.7 miles one-way
Elevation Gain: 200 feet
