Hiking
Gorgeous views! Great for all age groups.
At 0.4 miles, views come into sight. You’ll see Second, Third, and Fourth lakes from cliffs on the left. The last couple hundred feet before you reach the tower are along a rock spine and the views will be continuous and breathtaking. At just around 1 mile, the fire tower is reached. Climb to the top to enjoy 360-degree views or take in the sights from the rocks below. Either way, you can’t go wrong. Blue Mountain and the Fulton Chain of Lakes will stretch out before you as one of the most stunning views in the area.
