On Monday of our long weekend away, we packed up our car, armed with a picnic lunch, and headed to Montreat for a hike before heading home. I wanted a hike that took us to a wide-open view of the mountains and foothills and, again, wasn’t too far out of our way. I used the AllTrails app and found just what I was looking for—Lookout Trail in Montreat, just down the road from where we were staying in Black Mountain. The hike was pretty steep climbing to get to the lookout point, but we encountered very few people along the way so Olive was in hog heaven off leash. The view went on for miles—you could see some snow-capped mountains in the distance from the previous night’s snowfall (and some was on the trail, too) and the fall colors were just starting to paint the trees.
