profile trail to grandfather mtn.

tough trail. rocky. 11-12 miles. make sure of your abilities before attempting this hike.

will go from nc 105 at the start of the profile trail and up to grandfather mountain to the swinging bridge...from what i've read there is no charge if you hike in. we may also bag calloway peak for an extra mile. trail is very rocky. rock scrambling is required. you will be using your hands and arms a lot. wear good traction.

bring food and water and a headlamp!!! No flip flops!!! 1.5 hour drive to trailhead from earth fare so keep this in mind when paying your driver!! (yes...more than $2)

we may hit up my fathers pizza on the return home.
