I started from the middle parking lot on Grandfather mountain. Then hiked up the mountain, up the ladders and cliffs to the top of McCraes peak. The most amazing views all the way up the cliffs and on top. I like this part of the trail the best. But, if your afraid of heights, this is not the trail for you. I've hiked most all of this 12 mile trail at different times. But, this is the best part, so I hike it most often.
