Little Stony Man Cliffs Details
This short and popular hike from the Little Stony Man parking area (mile 39.1 on Skyline Drive) offers outstanding views without venturing far from the road. It's less than a mile roundtrip, making the trail a great option when you need a quick stop to get your legs moving (although there are a few steep sections). The trail will take you to the Little Stony Man Cliffs (not to the summit of Stony Man Mountain), a popular place for beginners to learn the basics of rock climbing and rappelling.
