Mt. Rogers is my favorite hike out of my 31 state hps. It's best to bring your family and friends to see a variety of terrain, endless views, wild horses and enjoy the fantastic view in Virginia!

We stayed at Hiker Inn @ Damascus, VA, the AT hiker town.

Damascus is a nice little town.

Extremely twisty road to the trailhead from Damascus, fun even in our Ford Escape!

Totally agree

Excellent trip report and fantastic pictures. We just did this one and I totally agree that it is one of the best highpoint hikes. Between the views and the horses this highpoint uniquely awesome.
