Start: 2024-12-05T09:00:00-05:00

Dobie Mountain is a great workout with amazing views from vistas along the AT of Rockfish Valley. This is a great entry level mountain hike (Level 2 difficulty and 4 miles). It's one of the closest mountain hikes from Richmond and also close to Blue Mountain Brewery on the way back to Richmond. This is a conditioning hike for me after ankle preservation surgery.

I'm planning to go to Steal the Glass at Blue Mountain Brewery after the hike.
