"I love this section of the AT. It definitely has its challenge no matter if you're going up it or down. To be honest, this mountain I find to be more difficult going down. Super hard on your knees when you're carrying a fully loaded 50 liter or bigger pack. Love the camping on this mountain and there's water for filtering.The views are amazing along with all the Mountain Laurel that's currently in bloom. If you're day hiking, The Priest is truly a wonderful challenge with great rewards. There's a fair amount of parking, but often gets really crowded and tight on the weekends. Happy Trails."
"Amazing hike! This 10 miler does not come without work, its one of the toughest and longest climbs in the state at over 3,000 ft. This is hike that has numerous false summits (great views) and the last leg is a tough grind. At the top be sure to push past for 1/2 mile to the outcrop view, its quite amazing 180 degree view. more info at intotheyonder.com"
"I love this hike. Get there before 10am for parking! The first lookout is the best one. It is close to 3 miles from the lot to the view. If you continue past the first scenic outlook for a mile or so, there will be campgrounds. On the opposite side of the road you will find a narrow bridge and the stream below."
"Small parking lot so get there early. Enjoyed our hike and overnight stay at the The Priest Shelter. It’s a tough climb with over 3,000 feet of elevation gain. Be sure to bring plenty of water. There is a creek on the way up to obtain water but you will need to filter it. Also enjoyed walking across the suspension bridge directly across the street."
"Beautiful place to visit even in winter! Only wanted to take the kids to see the bridge, but I’ll be back to do the hike, for sure! Just be warned, if you have a low clearance vehicle, you may not want to park in the parking lot, but across the street on the side of the road. My Tucson and an Outback both scraped leaving the parking area. No good angle to pull out onto the road. And add in the cars coming through at highway speeds, you don’t want to take your time."
