As you get ready to hit the trail this sign is posted. It reads: Are you Prepared for the Billy Goat Trail?One of the most difficult and strenuous trails in the east. Allow up to 3 hours. Scrambling over steep cliffs, angled rocks and boulders and climbing is required. Hikers must find a way up and down >40 foot cliffs. The is not an alternative trail around. Not recommended for people afraid of heights or with poor balance. Visitors in less than optimal health, carrying small children or tose hikers who are not experienced or properly outfitted shoudl consider other hiking trail options. Cary and drink lots of water. Wear sturdy hiking shoes with good soles. In order to protect rare plants and habitats do not walk off the blue blazed trail to avoid a puddle or difficult section. Stay on the trail. Absolutely NO bikes or dogs are allowed on the trail.
Other than the "optimal health" warning (yeah, what's opitmal really mean anyway?) we were game to check it out. Great fun was had by all.
