It features a rocky outcropping of white sandstone with expansive views into Trout Run Valley in West Virginia and Little Schloss Mountain in Virginia.[2][3]German settlers gave Big Schloss its name. Schloss is German for "castle", and the name is a reference to the rocky outcrop.[2][3] German was the common language in the area for several years.[3] A number of hiking trails lead to Big Schloss. Hikers may ascend from Wolf Gap via the Mill Mountain trail, or a circuit hike coming from FDR Rt. 92.[3] The Potomac Appalachian Trail Club maintains the trails leading up to Big Schloss. A bridge provides access to the Big Schloss rock outcropping. In the Fall of 2010, the bridge was replaced with new stairs, 20' of new handrails, and two new concrete abutments.[4] References1. ^{{cite gnis|id=1481781|name=Big Schloss|accessdate=Mar 29, 2013}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite summitpost |id=154008 |name=Big Schloss |accessdate=2011-05-07}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last=Kohlbrenner|first=Wil|title=Guide to Great North Mountain Trails|publisher=Potomac Appalachian Trail Club|location=Vienna, Virginia|year=2001|edition=First|pages=54|chapter=Big Schloss Group|isbn=0-915746-89-1}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&tab=core&id=fda547a1e51242486fca61c7ad3d319c&_cview=0|title=Big Schloss Trail Bridge Replacement - Shenandoah County, VA - GW & Jefferson National Forest|accessdate=2010-08-29}} External links
