About This Trail

While most visitors head to Craggy Gardens, the Craggy Pinnacle trail offers a more adventurous experience. A short but steep climb leads to a rocky summit with unobstructed 360-degree views in every direction. The unique high-elevation ecosystem features wind-sculpted vegetation and rare plant communities.
