A short but steep hike to enjoy some panoramic views and to reflect over a cairn of remembrance. The information kiosk on Mine Road reads as this: Shortly after the twin towers had fallen an old soldier started carrying rocks to the top of the Torne. The Rocks were a tribute to Service members in harm’s way a tangible symbol of a wish for a safe return. Soon others brought stones to honor those that would never return, those that gave their lives so others have a chance to live free. The trail is also referred to by some as the trail of the fallen. Highly recommend this inspiring hike if your in the area. |
