This event is now history, but we have many more wonderful programs in store for you!
Join SIR Drew on an approximately 5-mile loop hike located on the Virgin Falls Trail. We will meet at 10:00 am at the Virgin Falls Ranger Station, then hike via the Upland Trail out to Martha's Pretty Point for spectacular view out over Scott’s Gulf. From there, we will climb down the ladder and head on back out across the Cable Crossing, and up by Big Branch Cascades. Although this 5-mile hike is listed as moderate, there is the ladder climb and some elevation change and uneven footing on the way out.
Please wear weather appropriate clothing and sturdy hiking boots and bring plenty of water and a light lunch. Walking sticks, bug repellant, shorts, and cameras recommended.
The best address for this location is 2080 Scotts Gulf Road, Sparta, TN 38583
