We will meet at the Nature Center across the road from the parking lot. It will be closed but I'm pretty sure the bathrooms are unlocked. Be sure to bring water, snacks, sunscreen, and a light weight rain jacket just in case. If it is lightening we will need to get back down. Ive been stuck up there in a thundering storm and it was not pleasant. I usually take a liter of water. Wear athletic shoes or hiking boots. Trekking poles are helpful to some people especially on the way down. It will cost $5 per person and seniors ( 65 & older) get a discount.... I think $3.50 for Seniors.
TABLE ROCK TRAIL
Length: 3.6 miles one way

Type: Hiking

Difficulty: Very Strenuous

Description: The red blazed, 3.6-mile Table Rock Trail is a very rugged hike within the scenic and popular Table Rock State Park in the northwest corner of South Carolina. There are over 12 miles of trails in the park, but only the Table Rock National Recreation Trail ascends 2,000 feet to the summit of the imposing granite dome, Table Rock Mountain (3,124 feet). The hike begins at the Nature Center and ascends steeply through an open forest strewn with boulders. Along the way, you will see vegetation typical of the Southern Appalachians: dominant oak and hickory trees with scattered pines and hemlock. As you might guess, the strenuous hike offers the reward of spectacular views from the higher rock outcrops.
