Henson’s Arch Trail

Henson’s Arch Trail: This one is actually part of the Natural Bridge State Park trail system. While most trails within this state park are NOT dog friendly, Henson’s Arch Trail is one of the two that are! We love a good dog friendly trail. 🙂 You aren’t going to want to miss out on thisContinue reading “Henson’s Arch Trail”

Copperas Falls Trail

Copperas Falls Trail: This was one of the very first unmarked waterfall trails I did at the Gorge!

The trailhead for this one isContinue reading “Chimney Top Trail #235”

Because this is an unofficial/unmarked trail, there CAN be route finding issues and thereContinue reading “Turtle Back Arch”

Silvermine Arch Trail #225

Silvermine Arch Trail: This is one of the many trails that start from the Koomer Ridge Campground area! It is worth it to check this trail out, even if you are not staying at the campground, but I definitely recommend camping at Koomer Ridge! Silvermine Arch Trail is an out-and-back trail and is 2.5 milesContinue reading “Silvermine Arch Trail #225”
