Alum Cave Trail to Mount LeConte

Leave a Comment / By /
Overview:

The park’s signature hike — a scenic climb along a stream through rhododendron, past dramatic Arch Rock and the massive Alum Cave rock overhang, continuing (if you choose) all the way to the summit of Mount LeConte. Firsthand-verified by Gretchen, her favorite hike in the park.
