Other Mountain Activities
Burke Mountain has a paved road. A parking lot is co-located with the top of the mountain's ski lift.
There are two hiking trails from this point to the summit. The first proceeds pm a narrow, zig-zag trail with several lookout points for views of the surrounding areas. The second leads to a continuation of the paved road that is blocked off to public vehicle traffic. Both paths meet at the mountain's summit which contains a tower scalable by the use of a metal staircase.
