A Trek to Basin Mountain - Berea Forest


Details
Hike Description:
Our first stop on this hike will be the East Pinnacle from there we will hike to “Kelly’s trail” that will bring us to Robe Mountain, then across a narrow, wooded shoulder to Basin Mountain, with a return via the same route, plus a detour to the overlook at Indian Fort. The total hike is 7 miles, challenging difficulty due to a few very steep climbs, and some moderate rock scrambling.
Directions to the trailhead: I-75 south, take Berea exit 76, Hwy 21, go left (east) into Berea. After passing the small business district and Berea College, come to the intersection where Hwy 25 splits off left (see Boone Tavern Hotel on left). Continue on Hwy 21 to the right. From this point drive 3 miles; look for driveway(s) on the left side of the road, turn into large parking lot.
The hike will begin at 9 :30 AM.
