Height: 150 feet
Trail Type: Gravel, dirt, and rock
Hike Distance: 1.2 miles round trip
Difficulty: 15
Beauty: 10

Kayakers use this trail to drop in for the rapids that are created on dam release days, so as difficult as it is going down, know that people can do it while also carrying a kayak.

The trail is downhill 99% of the way, which means it’s uphill 99% of the way back. It loses almost 600 feet of elevation, and there are almost 700 rock steps to get down to the bottom. THIS. TRAIL. IS. HARD.

It begins as gravel for the first quarter before turning to dirt and increasing the decline grade. Take your time and you’ll be fine. Once you get to the rock steps, you’ll keep winding your way down to a spot at the base. If the river is raging like it was on the day I went, the spray will make it difficult to get pictures or video.

Jeremy and I took a quick day trip up to Highlands this week so that we could take care of our quarterly clean up and check of Honey Bee. It rained most of the day, but we got everything done. We were SURE to take a break from the Spring clean up in order to have lunch at one of our very favorite breakfast/lunch gems in Highlands! Blue Bike Cafe is a MUST STOP spot according to us....give it a try next time you're up in Highlands, you won't regret it!

Discover Glen Falls, a captivating triple waterfall near Highlands, offering four scenic stops on the approximately 2-mile round-trip hike in the Nantahala National Forest. From Highlands, head down NC Highway 106 for approximately 1.7 miles. Look for the sign to Glen Falls on the left and upon turning, the gravel road to the falls (SR1618) immediately veers off to the right. The road leads to the parking area after about 1 mile. When you reach the trail head take the trail to the left to begin descending the trail to the multiple observation decks. Approximately .5 miles from the parking area, you will come to the first observation deck for the upper waterfall section, plummeting about 70 feet. Then, continue another 1/3 of a mile to the middle falls, dropping 60 feet. A little further down is the third small section of the waterfall that descends about 15 feet.
