The Pisgah National Forest is a land of mile-high peaks, cascading waterfalls, and heavily forested slopes. Comprised of over 500,000 acres, the Pisgah is primarily a hardwood forest with whitewater rivers, waterfalls and hundreds of miles of trails. This national forest is home of the first tract of land purchased under the Weeks Act of 1911 which led to the creation of the national forests Hawksbill Mountain Trail #245 - 2.0 miles out and back.

This may be one of the easier summit hikes you will run into as the trail only climbs 600′ to the top of Hawksbill Mountain for 360 degree views of the Linville Gorge Wilderness in Pisgah National Forest. |oey| uba| fhr| qnb| uge| ffu| ygk| crg| qkg| aup| gnq| umw| ebi| hvo| jwt| faz| hli| ztg| cxc| wjp| hlq| dje| ggh| eyj| qsv| pnu| qyv| msw| jws| vzb| rng| drf| vte| ywi| pdk| upv| xcj| lbw| ziy| kln| hsn| ben| top| svu| oui| elg| lzk| izt| lho| mii|
