Glassy Mountain, Mountain summit in Pickens County, South Carolina, United States.

Glassy Mountain reaches 1,703 feet above sea level, featuring a granite face on its north side with small springs trickling down the surface.

The South Carolina Heritage Trust Program acquired Glassy Mountain in 1990, establishing the Glass Mountain Heritage Preserve in the southern region.

Local students maintain a tradition of painting graduation years on the granite rock face, creating markings visible from aerial perspectives.

The mountain trail extends 1.3 miles to the summit, offering both walking and driving access options through a service road for transmitter towers.

The mountain stands as a monadnock formation, providing clear views of Table Rock and Caesar's Head mountains across the Piedmont landscape.

Location: South Carolina
