Droop
Mountain Battlefield State Park
Length: 0.6 miles
Rating: Moderate
This easy trail follows an old road grade which passes
near the spot where Major Robert Augustus Bailey was shot while trying to
rally his men around the Confederate Flag. The trail begins near the
battlefield monuments and ends at the stone shed near the tower. It is an
excellent cross country ski trail in the winter.
