Hiking Highlight
Recommended by Matthew
This Highlight is in a protected area
Please check local regulations for: Shining Rock Wilderness
Cold Mountain stands at 6,030 feet in the protection of the Shining Rock Wilderness in Pisgah National Forest. This mountain summit is not an easy one to bag, but it's one of the most rewarding high peaks in the area. The trail to get up here is pretty straight forward, but there is limited trail markings since you are traveling through a protected wilderness area.
