マディソン郡周辺のおすすめ滝ハイキング＆ウォーキング

Hickey Fork Falls are located in the Shelton Laurel Backcountry Area, which is a more primitive hiking area. The trails here are tough to navigate if you haven't spent time in the mountains before. The falls, themselves, are beautiful and just off of the (often overgrown) trail.

Walker Creek Trail is a single-track trail that follows a branch of the creek. The trail is forested the entire time and crosses over the water on a couple occasions. This section of trail is especially beautiful during wildflower season.

Walker Creek has multiple branches and brings water to many parts of the forest. This particular section of the creek follows the trail and is lined with wildflowers and other forest flora in the spring and summer months.

Walker Falls can be reached by walking about a hundred feet off of Big Ivy Road in Pisgah National Forest. The cascading falls are 45 feet high and vary in strength depending on the time of year.

Make sure you bring trekking sticks
