Description

Dragon's Tooth is a 4.6 mile out and back hike with about 1260 feet of elevation gain. The first 1.5-2 miles is a pretty simple trail with the last 0.5-1 mile being more strenuous and involving some rock scrambling (which is very fun). And at the top you get to enjoy an amazing almost 360-degree view of Catawba Valley and the surrounding area!! Definitely a must-do hike while you're at VT!


Location

40 minutes northeast of campus


Driving Directions

Just put 'Dragon's Tooth Trail' into your maps app


What You Should Bring

Bring water, snacks, and a lunch for the top (we'll stop at the top for about 45 mins). Also bring anything else you may want for yourself personally, should be pretty good conditions on Saturday!
