7.8 miles, moderate terrain
71 miles from Roanoke, $7.00 carpool fee
Located in Giles County, this hike follows Dismal Creek for
several miles. Much of the trail is lined with rhododendron. At 3.9
miles, blue-blazed trail on right goes 0.3 miles to Dismal Falls. We will be
hiking down and around Dismal Falls and back up to the AT. This part of
the creek is very scenic. The hike ends at VA-606 and Kimberling
