Accessed from either the Marston Trail, Lauren's Loop, or the Catamount Trail. Peak-a-View is a great ride in itself and is what riding on Endor probably feels like. There is a great view on the top as well as some sweet technical challenges on this ride. It's also the potential start point for a 7 mile long downhill back to Stowe.
