Great hike for both novices and more experienced hikers alike. The first mile is pretty easy, but the last quarter mile makes up for it in steepness. I was huffing and puffing, but so was the dog.
My wife and I hiked it this past weekend after several days of rain. There were 2 beautiful smaller creeks we crossed along with the larger falls that we hiked to. Overall a beautiful hike especially after the rain
Trail is very rocky & narrow. not ideal for those scared of heights. not a leisure hike.
Beautiful! Not much water in the falls but still a really nice hike!
My wife and I hiked this trail from the trailhead off River Canyon Road to the Davis Pond camping area. Due to the drought in the area there was but a trickle of water. Pretty but dry. As for being a moderate hike we would have to debate that. We have hiked many, many trails and this one, especially from the falls to the Camp Ground, was one if the more rugged due to elevation and rocky terrain. It was worth every step but according to the elevations the rise is closer to 1100 feet from the trailhead to the Camp Ground with much of it continuous. It was a great hike but we were mentally prepared for one type and got another but so worth it.
Good trail. The falls where dried up, however, what gives this 5-stars is the public accessibility to the river. The trail parking lot is near a public access point perfect for fishers, and stinky travelers needing a place to bathe.
Didnt make it all the way, yet. Nice path, off road parking is a plus.
It is a nice place. Today the water was up at the top of the river bank.. waterfalls coming down the side of the mountain..
Beautiful place to hike, great scenery, trail goes up a mountain, so be prepared
Tough hike. Not much river scenery. Medicore waterfall at end.
Great trail with waterfalls and unique views of the Tennessee River.
Very relaxing
