The Blue Ridge area of Virginia has some impressive
mountains to climb. Sharptop, the tallest mountain in the Blue Ridge area has a
rewarding hike to the summit that suites beginner to intermediate climbers. At
the summit of Sharp Top, there is a stone cabin that hikers may stay in with
permission of the Blue Ridge Rangers department. The mountain’s summit is far
enough away from extreme light pollution, and has big rocks to lay down on and
star gaze with your friends and even your family! Up there you will be amazed
of the quality and brightness of the stars. It is great for taking long
exposures with your camera and tripod for some memorable pictures of your night
out on Sharp Top Mountain.
