Cook's Wall Trail: Hiking Hanging Rock State Park in Stokes County, North Carolina

Описание: In this final installment from my April 2015 visit to Hanging Rock State Park, located near Danbury in Stokes County, North Carolina, we begin at the intersection of Wolf Rock Trail and the Cook's Wall Trail at Wolf Gap. We continue on the Cook's Wall Trail for about 1.6 miles, climbing several times and passing the spectacular House Rock overlook with it's awesome views back towards Wolf Rock and Hanging Bluff, then passing near the Cook's Wall Cliff's, and ending at another rocky scenic overlook at Cool Gap. From the end of the Cook's Wall Trail its only a few steps through the woods to Devil's Chimney, another knob along the ridge with several protruding rocks and offering fantastic views to the north past Moore's Wall and Huckleberry Ridge and on into Virginia. To the west we get great views of Ruben's Mountain, Sauratown Mountain, and Pilot Mountain. We also get spectacular views into the Piedmont of North Carolina. We then return back down the Cook's Wall Trail all the way down the mountain to the large parking lot near the lake. Thanks for watching!
