first falls is .3
miles down stream from

second is .75 miles
upstream from the
trailhead. The trail
originally to a third

almost 2 mile round trip trek that
offers an easy-to-moderate climb
along the combined
Appalachian,
Benton MacKaye and
Duncan Ridge Trails to a
beautiful waterfall that flows fully

For through hikers the falls are
only a short distance from the main

the falls.
