Summary: Beginning at the parking lot, cross Skyline Drive and follow Sugarloaf Trail down hill. The trail cross Piney River and the climbs to the AT near Sugarloaf. (Unless the water is unusually high, crossing Piney River is not difficult.) The top of Sugarloaf offers spectacular views of Browntown Valley, Dickey Ridge, and Massanutten Mountain. Trailhead: Trailhead begins on Skyline Drive at a paved area just south of Hogback Overlook and MP 21.

Reviewed by Riley on 3/1/2004 Trailhead is poorly described and the map of the trail is not accurate. Park as described and cross Skyline Drive. Take AT up hill. It's less than a mile to the AT/Sugarloaf Trail intersection. There, follow the Sugarloaf Trail down the hill. This loop is great winter hike. Nice vistas, and cool water crossings. Thanks for the hike. Notice: Traveling in the backcountry can be hazardous. You are responsible for informing yourself about these hazards and taking necessary precautions.
