Itinerary:
moderate (6 miles and a water crossing)

We will travel a little over 90 miles up to Tennessee and see three waterfalls including the ‘Secret’ waterfall, after some root grabbing on the way up, and butt sliding on the way back down. We’ll lunch at the lovely ‘Secret’ waterfall on Little Rock Creek; and after driving a short distance to our second trailhead, hike another three miles roundtrip for a total of 6 moderate miles for the day. This lovely waterfall hike has two shallow water crossings for which you can bring extra wet shoes of some sort.

There will be optional inexpensive dining on the way back at ‘Little Rome’ Italian restaurant, which makes a good pizza.

This is not a rough hike by Bruce Aldridge standards, but has plenty of nice scenery including a beautiful overlook on the road to Benton Falls.

Required Items to Bring:
water crossing shoes of some sort
2 liters of water
trail food
clothing appropriate for colder weather		Recommended Items to Bring:
