Zacc WalkerIncredibly beautiful hike. I took my dog in winter and it was amazing. The path itself is nice. It is a good mix of flat trail and kind of wildnerness. The waterfall itself isn't the best I've ever seen, but the hike itself easily makes up for it. Also, tons of really friendly people. I'm not sure if I caught a weird day, but it was the friendliest hike I have ever had.

JLHemlock Falls is absolutely stunning. While on the trail you can hear the water all the way to the falls, creating a serene atmosphere. The bridge offers a perfect spot to unwind and take in the surroundings before reaching the end of the trail. While the trail isn’t lengthy, it can be narrow and slippery in places, so it’s important to watch your step, especially with overgrown roots. Despite these minor challenges, Hemlock Falls is a fantastic destination for enjoying nature.

Ward DoughertyA beautiful but challenging walk to see several waterfalls. The trailhead for this is across from the Moccasin Creek Campground. There is a short drive down the gravel road to get to the walking trailhead. Do not forget to purchase a $5 parking pass from somewhere (online or at the Mocassin Creek Campground office). You can take the chance of not having a parking pass but I would not recommend it. I went there in the fall and the path was covered in leaves which is both beautiful and dangerous as the trail is covered in roots and rocks which the leaves cover very well. The walk to the lower falls is about 1.5 miles and to the upper falls is another 0.5 miles. I thought it was worth it for several reasons. There are more than just these two falls if you keep your eyes open along the path and the walk is very pretty. The walk can be very challenging as there are several places where you have to go over/under trees, the path is very narrow and slippery and the small bridge only has one railing and the entire path has lots of rocks and roots. It is an out-and-back trail. The upper falls are not large but are unique in their way with several rocks to sit on and enjoy the view and serenity. Overall, it was well worth the trip and I would recommend it to fellow travelers.

Stacey HammerleBeautiful, well maintained trail along a creek with waterfalls. Trail does have some sections that are covered in roots but overall, it is an easy hike.
