About This Trail

Imported description
The summit of Mount Rogers is Virginia's highest peak. The hike provides a great overview of the Appalachians' most interesting environments, including long-range vistas from open "balds" and dark forested areas nearest the summit. The guide also talks about the fascinating natural history of these habitats, which is almost as dramatic as the scenery itself.
