			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Charlies Bunion is one of the more popular (and fun) day-hikes in the Great Smoky Mountains. It&#8217;s about 8.1 miles roundtrip so give yourself plenty of time to hike in and get out. Charlies Bunion rises to an elevation of 5,565 feet, but you only do about 1,640 feet in elevation during the hike. </p>
<p>To get to Charlies Bunion, start at the Newfound Gap parking lot. The trail to Charlies Bunion, via the Appalachian Trail, is not hard to find. Just follow the signs. It&#8217;s funny &#8211; you&#8217;ll see a sign when you get there that reads &#8220;Closely control children.&#8221; When you reach the summit there is not a lot of room to move around and it&#8217;s all rocks. There aren&#8217;t picnic benches or anything. You do this hike for the magnificent view.</p>
<p>Check out this video from the summit.</p>
