Hiking and the Great Outdoors
A few of my favorite hiking and walking trails
Pinnacle Mountain
Great intermediate trail - less crowded, more serene than many other trails. The only waterfall you can stand behind in this area!

Crabtree Falls
The scenic 2.5-mile loop trail to Crabtree Falls is
moderate to strenuous with a steep incline and
rocky terrain. Hikers should allow 1.5 to 2.5 hours
for the entire hike.
From the trailhead in the parking lot behind the
campground entrance, the trail descends .9 mile
to the falls through a mixed oak-hickory forest.
Hikers also will pass through a thicket of rosebay
rhododendron.
At the base of the trail is spectacular Crabtree
Falls, where water cascades over a 60-foot rock
cliff. Many types of ferns and wildflowers thrive in
the hollow, benefiting from the waterfall's cool
spray. The wet rocks here are slippery. Please do
not climb on the rocks.
After viewing the falls, hikers can return either by
retracing their steps, or by continuing on a longer
but more gradual ascent back to the parking lot.
The longer route begins as a moderately steep
switchback that provides another beautiful view
