Signal Knob Loop (Rating: A)

You must read the following NVHC Sign-in Sheet Statement/Liability Disclaimer, https://nvhc.com/signin.pdf and then answer the question that you will see when you RSVP with "I accept" to be permitted on the hike.

This is an approximately 10 mile circuit hike with an elevation gain of about 2300 feet on Massanutten Mountain in the George Washington & Jefferson National Forests. The hike is predominantly on the Massanutten (orange blazed) and Tuscarora (blue blazed) trails, and includes good views from Buzzard Rock Overlook, Fort Valley Overlook, and Signal Knob. We hike at an average pace of 2.8 mph while moving, slower on the uphill and faster on flat or downhill terrain.

For those wishing to carpool, the suggested carpool location is at the Centerville P&R ( 38.836080, -77.455327). The driving time from there to the trailhead is about 1 hour. Please arrive at the Park and Ride by about 7:30 AM to allow drivers to leave by 7:45 AM. Neither the Club nor the hike leaders are responsible for coordinating transportation to/from the trailhead. Hikers are not guaranteed to get a ride to the trailhead from the carpool location; carpooling is organized by the participants and they participate at their own risk. Suggested carpool fee is $8.

Trailhead: Please be at the trailhead by 8:45 so we can begin hiking by 9:00.
