Summary: An easy and short climb perfect for kids and older people. The views are excellent from the ledge. This tends to be a popular hike so be prepared to say 'hello' to lots of folks. The ledge is quite safe. You are not required to go very close. Trailhead: Start behind the old train depot at the top of Crawford's notch on Route 302. The trail head is shared by the Avalon trail.

There were many with nothing that made it but we did see one lady take a tumble. She was fine but likely would not have done so with something other than boots on her feet. Views were wonderful and certainly worth the hike. Nice hike, even my 5yr old did ok on it. Views were wonderful even on a partly cloudy day. Ledge does drop off, watch smaller children. Centennial Pool was a pleasant stop on te way back down. Easy hike but gorgeous views of the Notch. A great hike for a late start and a stop for lunch. I agree with the AMC guide, incredible view for the effort. Notice: Traveling in the backcountry can be hazardous.
