    Hiking

    Black Balsam Knob, standing at 6,214 feet, offers amazing views of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains and Great Balsam Mountains. This treeless bald is ideal for a short hike and attracts families, day hikers, picnickers, and photographers. You can extend your hike by continuing on the Art Loeb Trail to explore connecting trails for a loop hike. This is the second-highest peak the Great Balsam Mountains has to offer.
