also over on highway 63 at Russell Crossroads, there are the Russell trails. We have hiked short sections of them and they are nice. Some right along lake edge. Where we hiked was not steep but some areas may be. Also can rent horses to ride out there or rent a kayak or a bike. And then Catherine's Market is there and the Spring House, so it's a cool place to take guests.

I heard that the Cherokee Ridge Alpine Trail Assoc also has some new trails on Smith Mountain that include the old fire tower there. We hope to get over there in the next couple weeks and check it out.

And ditto on the above comments on the Overlook trails. I have hiked them MANY times and are very beautiful and scenic. The one called Deadening Trail is a bit scary with the trail going along edge of steep bluff and lots of big boulders but for experienced hikers, it's a great time. :) Have fun.
