We Found a Shortcut to a Hidden Gem - Pilot Mountain

Experience the allure of Pilot Mountain in North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains! Join us as we unveil a quicker route to the summit, bypassing the usual 14-mile hike on the renowned Art Loeb Trail.
Our journey starts at Daniel Ridge Trailhead, taking us via Davidson River Road to Gloucester Gap, where we intersect the Art Loeb Trail. Climbing 1,800 feet challenges us, but we persist until the slope eases.
At last, we conquer the peak, greeted by an awe-inspiring panorama of layered mountains. The transition from lush greens to the 'Blue Ridge Mountains' signature blue hues leaves us in awe. Immersed in the scenery, our sense of accomplishment is overwhelming.
