New! Sugarloaf Mountain Hike and Sugarloaf Mountain and Winery

NOTE: RECOMMENDED ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED HIKERS

This is a new hike - a little further from where we normally hike but a different location and really beautiful. It is a challenging hike so please plan accordingly.

Remember - we start on time - so please leave enough time to arrive on time! :-)

Sugarloaf Mountain Hike: Blue Loop 5.4 miles
Elevation Gain: 1,063 feet (about 80 building stories)
Rating: Difficult, based on the frequent elevation changes & rocky terrain
Pace: 25-30 minute miles depending on the terrain
The hike follows the Blue Loop trail. We’ll stop at the White Rocks overlook for a break, snacks & pictures (this is about halfway and is very nice!)

Hiking poles are recommended on this hike. Be sure to wear sturdy hiking boots or shoes
Bring plenty of water & snacks. This is a challenging hike and being hydrated and having fuel for your body is a great idea!
Leashed & friendly dogs are allowed on this hike (please cleanup after you pet)

Entrance Address: 7901 Comus Road Dickerson, MD 20842
Voluntary (optional) donations of $5 provide needed funding for maintenance of the property & facilities (The donation box is at the entrance)

After entering the park, please proceed until you see a parking lot on your right & a sign that reads West View - East View
Turn left at that sign, drive through the east view parking lot until you come to a fork in the road
Stay right at the fork (careful this is a narrow two-way road)
After a short distance you’ll come to a circle, stay right & you’ll see a picnic shelter with porta-potties on your right, this is the West View parking lot
Park here & we’ll meet by the picnic shelter
Restrooms
There are a couple of porta-potties located at the parking lot for your convenience. Be sure to plan accordingly, as these are the only restroom facilities available on this hike.
After the hike we’ll head to the Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard
18125 Comus Rd, Dickerson, MD 20842
There should be a food truck on premises. We tried it out - tasty!
Feel free to bring your own food.
Please remember that outside alcohol is not allowed
