On your way to Grassy Bald, you’ll pass through a natural rhododendron tunnel, one of the many found along the Appalachian Trail. It adds to the magic of the hike, especially when the branches are covered in pink blooms during spring and summer.

Buffalo Mountain Park is a 725-acre nature preserve featuring steep, forested terrain. There are several miles of hiking trails that have great views of the nearby mountains and valleys.

In late spring and early summer this trail has lovely wildflowers from wild blueberries, flame azaleas, to rhododendron. This trail is frequently windy and colder than lower elevations so it is good to wear layers on this trail even in summer.

Excellent hike on a full moon night. Bring a jacket since it is almost always windy up there. My photo in the highlights is on a full moon night.
