Birkhead Mountain Trail

Features Birding · Fall Colors · Wildlife

This trail starts at the parking area on Tot Hill Farm Road. The trail climbs up to the top of Birkhead Mountain and then follows the ridgeline to the southern end of the mountain. Though dense foliage limits visibility in the summer, there are some views through the trees in winter.

The trail connects to several other trails in this wilderness area, including Camp Three Trail, Robbins Branch Trail, and Hannah's Creek Trail.
