First 0.6 miles is brutal; save energy for the view
Watch for unmarked side trails; white blazes are your guide
Park on South Mountain Pass Road shoulder; trailhead kiosk marks the start
A short, steep 2.6-mile hike on the Appalachian Trail rewards you with sweeping views of the Bear Mountain Bridge and Hudson River from a sprawling rocky summit. The first 0.6 miles is pure staircase; after that, smooth sailing to one of the Hudson Valley's finest overlooks.
