    Hiking

    At the end of the parking lot adjacent to Lily Lake, you will see an unmarked stone path. Here you can take a left to reach Mount Tallac from Glen Alpine. The path is well marked and has great views.
    I recommend climbing to Mount Tallac by the unmarked path from the Glen Alpine trail head - after completing the day pass, go back and on the right at the end of the parking lot, take the Stone path and on the left the path begins to climb, it is great and well marked, and allows for a loop instead of an TO/R
