Description

Meet at Squires lot at 10 am and then get to Kelly Knob Trailhead by around 11 am. I will give an overview in the gravel lot before we start. We will hike 4 miles total with about 400' of gain and it should take us around 1 hr. We will return to VT at 1.This hike is easy. Same difficulty to Cascades.


Location

Hanging Rock is a viewpoint just past the West Virginia / Virginia Border.


Driving Directions

The parking lot for Hanging Rock can be found in map apps and is 1 hr from Blacksburg.


What You Should Bring

Wear closed-toed sneakers that you feel comfortable walking in. I highly recommend trekking poles since they make walking easier. I recommend wearing breathable clothing. NO OPEN TOED SHOES, NO SPEAKERS.
