Hike Up Mud Gap To Whigg Meadow Grassy Bald

This is a easy hike  from Mud Gap along the Cherohala Skyway (about mile 3 on the NC side) along the Benton MacKaye Trail uphill to Whigg Meadow at 5000 feet with 360 degree  breath - taking views of the surrounding TN and NC mountains. The total milage of this hike is only 3.2 miles and worth every mile to get to the top of the grassy bald for the views .

Beautiful hike on Mud Gap Trail to Whigg Meadow

Mud Gap Trail is part of the Benton - MacKaye Trail

Fall time is my favorite time to hike 

What i love about hiking or camping in Cherokee National Forest you can backcountry camp anywhere
