The only national park without a road; the only way to get there is by water.

My husband and I loved this hike! The only access to the trail is via boat. The trailhead has a large dock with room for several boats. We were the only ones on the trail during the morning of our visit. The park service lists the hike as strenuous. I’d considerate it more moderate. The trail is a little over 4 miles round trip. We spent a little over three hours total in hiking, including about 30 minutes relaxing and fishing on the shore of Locator Lake. Since VNP visitor’s centers are currently closed due to COVID-19, we couldn’t get a key to access the canoes kept by the lake. We’ll look forward to a paddle on another visit. My husband did hook one fish from the shore. Wear good hiking shoes as you are up and down several rock outcroppings over the length of the trail. The trail is primarily through the woods and crosses several wetlands areas. It is narrow in some areas but always easy to follow. The elevation changes and the vistas across woods, wetlands and the lake made for a delightful morning. We’ll do this hike again on our next visit. A bonus- vault toilets are available at the trailhead and at Locator Lake. There is also a picnic table and fire ring at Locator Lake if you want to carry in a picnic.
