HIGHLIGHTS: The Green Mountain
Trail actually consists of several hike options, including a loop from Deep Gap,
a shuttle hike to Blue Ridge Lake, and a shuttle hike connecting with the Long
Branch Loop Trail. This route, however, describes a loop hike from Deep Gap at
Aska Road.
The Green Mountain trailhead is located across from the Deep Gap Parking Area on
the other side of Aska Road. Start at the trailhead to the right with your back
to the parking area. (The trailhead to the left, which is about 50 yards up Aska
Road, is where the hike ends in about an hour.) The Green Mountain trail
gradually ascends on the southeastern side of Green Mountain on a well-marked
dirt path through a canopy of hardwoods. There are excellent views of the
surrounding mountains in this area (but only during the winter months).
