High School Summer Hikes: Wade Mountain

(Moderate / Around 3 hours / Just under 4 miles) The view from the top of the Devils Racetrack trail is not one to be missed! If you haven’t seen it yet (and even if you have), join us for a hike on Wade Mountain. We’ll start at the Spragins Hollow Trailhead, and take the Devils Racetrack Trail to the Rockwall Trail. We’ll take it to where it meets the Shovelton Trail, which we’ll take to reconnect with the Devils Racetrack. After taking a loop around the top, we’ll take the Racetrack back down to the trailhead.

Note: This preserve has multiple trailheads – be sure to go to the right one!

Location: Wade Mountain Nature Preserve (Spragins Hollow Trailhead)–10130 Spragins Hollow Road NW, Huntsville, AL 35810 (off of Winchester Road)
