About This Trail

Imported description
The trail begins off of FS68 and goes down until you reach the intersection with the Conasauga River Trail. This is a moderate Hike with the only moderate parts being a few steep areas on the return trip back up the mountain. The Trail is a very rewarding one because of the shading and cool creek.
