Slickrock Creek trailhead is alongside Tapoco Road, where the trail goes along Little Tenesse River and passes by various waterfalls. This is a more challenging route as the trail can be a little narrow, due to it being not so popular. It is the right trail for those looking for some adventure around a lush forest. This is considered the most difficult trail of North Carolina, due to the tough incline climbs and technical descents, but for those who are prepared it is an enjoyable hike.
