The hike up the mountain is even more spectacular at night, and the view from the summit at sunrise will be 100% worth it.
Walk up the Ridge Trail and down the Weakley Hollow Fire road . A nice 9 mile hike with some challenging bits on the way up.
Dogs are not allowed on the Ridge Trail or Saddle Trail , though I've seen people attempt to bring them anyway. Don't do it: It's too dangerous at the top when it's nothing but a rock scramble.
Old Rag is so popular, the park has special rules for recreational use. There’s a fee to park and use the trails on certain weekends and holidays during summer and fall. Read more
Pack lots of water! You'll be surprised how much you drink during the hike
