Pyramid Peak is technically not a mountain, as it does not fulfill the criteria of being at least 0.75 miles from the next highest peak or have 300 feet of prominence on all sides.

But although it is a subpeak of its neighbor, Gothics Mountain, Pyramid Peak contains some of the best views in the Adirondacks. Pyramid Peak reaches 4,515 feet elevation at the top, and is only a 0.3 mile hike from the summit of Gothics Peak, via the Pyramid-Gothics Trail.

Most hikes of Pyramid Peak will be overnight excursions, and the two main trailheads that can be used to approach the summit are St Huberts and The Garden.

Campers in the High Peaks Area should be aware of all restrictions and permits necessary, and are required to travel with a bear canister, as bears are prevalent in the area.
