The climb to Little Stony Man Cliffs is short, leading to a popular spot for rock climbing on the Appalachian Trail. The cliffs offer a few routes for climbing and rappelling, and it's great to watch the climbers from here. From the overlook at Little Stony Man Cliffs, you can see the profile of the Stony Man to the south, resembling a face.

The landscape from this point is breathtaking! It totally repays the effort of the ascent.

The first stop on a short hike. The park is full of great trails, but most of them lead somewhere where the car isn't waiting. You can also do Stony Man in one go, which for me is the appeal of not having to go back on the same path.
