Trail Overview
Access to a beautiful waterfall into the Rockcastle River. Characteristics of an old Forest Service Road. Large gravel, dirt, and shallow water crossings. Some washouts around one foot deep. Beautiful drive through a less-trafficked area of Daniel Boone National Forest. There is a possibility of downed trees at times, as this is rarely maintained. This trail intersects the Sheltowee Trace, DO NOT attempt to drive the Sheltowee Trace.
