Trailhead

Many legends surround the name of this hike, but there is no denying the beautiful westward views that it provides of the Shenandoah Valley and Massanutten Mountain. Pets must be on a physical leash no longer than 6 feet at all times.

Note that very limited closures are in effect in an effort to prevent further degradation of important outcrop ecosystems on Marys Rock.
