HikeWNC Trail Details: Wilderness Falls

Description

Formerly called the Frolictown trail. Starting at Salt Rock along the Panthertown Valley trail, this trail descends on a narrow, twisty, somewhat steep path to the base of Wilderness Falls. I'm not sure who named this falls, but the name sort of fits, although most people just call it the falls on Double Knob Branch. At any rate, the naming of the trail should help seal the name of the falls it leads to, which is a very worthwhile destination. Beyond the bottom of the falls, the trail twists and turns some more through the bottoms along Frolictown Creek before coming to an end at the Deep Gap trail right across from another waterfall on that creek.
