Sightseeing
The total distance to hike to the summit of Bald Mountain is just under a mile and the ascent is about 500 feet to reach the 2350 foot summit. The start of the hike is a deceptively easy walk in the woods, but fairly soon you come to the steepest section where you climb a widely eroded trail up onto the top of the descending ridge. The Rondaxe Fire Tower, located on the summit, has been restored so that you can climb up for the best views. The summit area is open, quite long and can easily accommodate a large number of hikers. Don't expect to be alone during this nearly two-mile round trip hike, as it is very popular. There are fantastic views from the fire tower and also from the many viewpoints along the trail. Parking area is on the left about ten minutes north of Old Forge, it is marked by signs.
