Description

This area can be crowded on holiday weekends or during the summer, but I have never run into complications. It is very shaded and much more windy than the approach trail. The best time to climb would be early to late evening. 2 hours before the sun set is when the temperatures get really good. The rocks stay relatively cool and dry due to wind and tree coverage.

Getting There

The approach to Preacher's Rock is about 1.0 miles on the AT. The boulders are near the end of the hike, before the last switchback. Some are hidden and off the trail, but several are obvious in the approach.
