Wooded creekside trails with small cascades, riffles and leafy Appalachian forest—good for intimate landscape and waterscape shots, seasonal foliage, and bird/insect close-ups. Best at golden hour or after rain when water flow and reflections are strongest. Small parking lot at the trailhead (no fee); trails are mostly unpaved and can be muddy—sturdy shoes recommended. Weekday mornings are quiet; spring and fall offer peak color and wildflower/bird activity.
