About This Trail

Imported description

The trail just past the entrance of Stone Mountain Park has nice lakeside views and is easy to hike on. The first half of the path follows along the lakeside and then climbs until it reaches the ridge next to Highway 78. It descends back down until it reaches the trailhead for 1.5 miles. The trail is not usually busy, but it is a small lot.
