HILLTOP VIEW Leave the Inn and follow the road to the Honeycombs, perhaps walking the white trail on the way. Pass the Honeycombs parking lot and continue up hill and to the right onto the double green trail, which climbs to the pentagonal bench at Hilltop View. Relax on the bench, enjoy the view, watch for Turkey Vultures soaring in the distance, and keep an eye on the television antenna for birds perching there. Return to the INN by the evergreens and the green trail.
