The Stanley Gap Trail meets the Benton MacKaye Trail in a rugged and scenic stretch of the Blue Ridge. Expect steady climbs and rewarding ridge views, with rhododendron tunnels and thick forest cover. Water sources are limited along the ridges, so fill up before starting this segment. It’s a quieter part of the trail, perfect for enjoying the solitude of the mountains.
