Description
Added by Trevor Pennington
Hike a steep decent to the bottom of the famous Linville Falls. Find a rock at the bottom to chill / take awesome photos.
Park at the Linville Falls Visitor Center and take the Linville Gorge red blaze trail (a left before going through the building). A mild ascent will lead to the second fork in the trail - take a left here for a sharp decent to the bottom of the falls. Some rock scrambling may be necessary at the bottom to get close to the falls in times of heavy water flow.
.7 miles to the bottom for a total of 1.4 miles
