Located in SW Virginia, this fun loop takes you to a great viewpoint overlooking Hungry Mother SP before heading back down to a stroll along the lake. As you route down various ebbs of the hillside it always keeps a new view in perspective. Fall colors were a treat, just a little before peak there.
The view out from Molly’s Knob, I’m not sure what that ridge line is, possibly Clyburn ridge.
The trail snakes through the fall colors as the hillsides ebb and flow.
Fall colors along the lake shore.
Thanks! Yeah as I was walking up to it it just seemed so well framed that I knew I had to try and capture that.
