Description

From Lake Coffey to Locust Ridge Road a moderately strenuous 1 mile

An elevation change of 418 feet.

This is a single track-walking trail that leads through the woods down to its terminus at Locust Ridge Road , a distance of one mile. You will encounter steep terrain as it follows Pond Creek. This trail offers some of Beech Mountain 's greatest natural beauty. Water cascading over rocks, with many small falls and one large fall makes your hike well worth the effort. Old hemlock trees reach for the sky from this gorge.

While this trail is somewhat rugged and a little difficult in places, most healthy individuals in moderate shape will find it very negotiable. An adult should always accompany children. Do not attempt to slide on the rocks or swim in the small pool, they could prove to be dangerous.

There are many great spots on the rocks along the way for a picnic or just sitting and enjoying nature at its very best. Native trout can be found in some of the pools along the creek. For those wanting to make a one-way hike, you can station a car at the bottom of this trail.
