Summary: This trail travels around the crest of Fort Mountain and has access at numerous places in the park. There is a 855 foot rock wall which stands on the hightest point of the mountian. There is also a remains of tower too. I did this hike in the rain, and even then it was an enjoyable exprience. Trailhead: The main trailhead is located to the right of the cool springs parking area, near the old fort.

Reviewed by Jim F on 11/21/2007 My wife and I hiked this trail in late October. Very beautiful time of year to hike the trail withe the fall foilage. I would allow 5 hours or so at a pleasant pace. Lots of wonderful views. 
Reviewed by Sam B on 3/22/2005 I have backpacked this trail many times. A great camping spot in the fall, spring, and summer. Great views off the trail. May see bears if you are lucky. Some nice bouldering possibilities are off the trail as well.
Reviewed by KR on 7/11/2004 I hiked this trail 7/10/2004 with two other adults and my black lab. It is a very well maintained trail. One of my favorite sections of this trail is where the Gahuti Backcountry Trail joins with the Big Rock Nature Trail. There are some small waterfalls in this section. We enjoyed the continuious up and down climbs throughout the hike. I suggest you begin this hike early in the morning when it is cooler. Notice: Traveling in the backcountry can be hazardous. You are responsible for informing yourself about these hazards and taking necessary precautions. Information on this web site comes from volunteer reporters and may contain errors or omissions.
