Guided Hikes in Mount Jefferson State Natural Area

Length: 1.5 mi	Difficulty: Moderate
Climb: (195ft)	Tread:

This mountaintop self-guiding nature trail is a gem in North Carolina's northwest corner. You'll see rare Northern Red Oak forests at an elevation near 5000', as you stroll through an understory of Catawba rhododendron, which put on a showy display during June. And at one of the most spectacular of several cliff-top views, you'll find a heath bald with rare plant species, and a rare, misplaced Aspen forest!
