Pine Mountain provides excellent hiking opportunities. The terrain is rugged and many trails are considered classed as difficult. When joining us on a hike please bring comfortable hiking shoes, water, snacks/lunch, appropriate clothing (rain or cold weather gear), and anything you personally need to insure your comfort and readiness for a hike in a remote area. PMTC typically host one guided hike per month.
