HikeWNC Trail Details: High Shoals Falls Loop
Description
Short, but steep, and very popular trail leads to High Shoals Falls. Follows the beautiful Jacob Fork river upstream to the falls beside huge boulders, large trees, and deep, clear pools. Surface gets quite rocky with many bridge and staircase structures along the way. Climbs along this part of the trail are moderately steep. Then, above the falls, the trail climbs a very steep set of steps, travels across the river and across a low ridge, and back down a moderately steep hill through nice, but nondescript woods to the parking area.
