About the Hike
Hike Description
Contact hike leader by email for reservation. Form carpools and meet the hike leader at the second meeting place. The Stool Mountain Trail is a new trail in Table Rock State Park, just to the side of Table Rock. A less technical trail than Table Rock, it is still a strenuous hike, gaining over 1,500 feet in elevation over 2.7 miles as it climbs through stream valleys, boulder fields, and rock overhangs to the summit of Stool Mountain. The trail features spectacular views of Table Rock itself, the South Carolina piedmont below, and Table Rock Reservoir. We will see evidence of the Table Rock fire which burned almost 16,000 acres in April 2025. NOTE: $6 admission fee per person. This is hunting season; please wear orange.Topos: Table Rock
