    Hiking

    Hump Mountain rises up over a mile in the sky to an elevation of 5,587 feet. You can reach this overlook and summit by coming from either direction on the Appalachian Trail, but taking the trail from the north is the most popular since it's just off the side of Highway 19E, and it's the shortest roundtrip distance.
