Had an amazing time. The hike wasn’t too hard for my five year old.

Great easy hiking. Parking is a bit small and usually becomes full very early in the morning. Hiking trails are marked and there’s some boards showing the trails

It’s ok trail with a small falls maybe more beautiful in spring with Rhododendron

Best trail access to check out Hemlock Falls and Hobble Falls. Also don’t miss the giant rhinoceros tree at the fork in the trail just in from the parking lot. Falls are about a half mile from the lot. Trail is wide and well maintained but does flood in heavy rains. Of course that’s the best time to see the falls.

One of the best trails I’ve ever been on! The tail is easy but LORD my legs were sore for two days. It’s a beautiful view and a nice way to let out stress.
