Harvey's Knob to Jennings Creek
10.3 miles, moderate terrain
18 miles from Roanoke, $2.00 carpool fee
We will probably view some fall foliage and get some nice views at Mills Gap,
Sharptop Overlook, Montvale Overlook, and Harveys Knob.This hike will begin at
the overlook at Harvey's Knob off the Blue Ridge Parkway. We will follow the AT
north to the junction with the Little Cove Mountain Trail. We will then descend
the Little Cove Mountain Trail to Jennings Creek. If we hit the date just
right, this hike will offer many wildflowers, including rhododendron and
mountain laurel. We should have good views at Parkway crossings. The car
shuttle will be about 20 minutes.
