This is a two-ended backpacking and hiking trail with two trailheads, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry hike it just one way. Rocky Top Trail has a total elevation difference of 526 feet which is a lower than average number. You should count on this backcountry trek taking about 5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. Rocky Top Trail is 5.4 miles long it's a mid length trek. The wilderness trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time, so you get pretty much the same conditions along the whole wilderness trail. Rocky Top Trail is not that long but it's always wonderful to bring some emergency supplies, you never know what could happen.
