Section 18: Stone Mountain State Park

Approximately 9 miles

Note: a portion of MST Section 17 to the west of this Stone Mountain State Park is currently closed, and it blocks access to the Park from the west. The reroute around that closure bypasses the Park to connect with the western end of Section 19. See Trail Updates for more information.

From Devil’s Garden Overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway, the trail heads into Stone Mountain State Park following Widow’s Creek and Stone Mountain trails to the visitor center. Camping is available in the park by reservation only.
