Kennedy Peak Hike

Located off the Massanutten Trail in the Fort Valley Area, Kennedy Peak has some of the best vistas in the region with a spectacular 360 view from the fire tower viewing platform on its summit. Planned hike is an out and back hike of 7 miles with 1300 ft of elevation gain & decent. (There is an optional 9.5-mile 1600 ft elevation gain loop hike using the Massanutten and more rugged Stephens Trail for those looking for a little more challenge? For description visit: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/virginia/kennedy-peak-trail). Hike should be considered on the strenuous side and come prepared for the weather and don't forget water, insects, and poison ivy this time of year with no dogs for this hike.
