Going counterclockwise along the loop, starting with a 300ft steep slope, which is actually the sole challenging part of this trail. There are many tree roots on the trail, and you may trip if you are not careful, a pair of trekking poles would make the hiking safer. Surrounded by the trees in the middle of nowhere, there is an abandoned mysterious car, and there are no roads around, no one knows how it got here. There are few hikers, and you can sit by the river dazing off, or meditate.

Beautiful! We had a…read moregreat weekend camping at Red Top Mountain! My family booked the walk-in campsites 46-50, and in my opinion, these were some of the best spots in the campground. (Book 44 &43 if you want to be closer to 47-50). These campsites are right next to the water and not too far from the bathrooms, which is so convenient. There is no electricity there and site has their own water. We had beautiful weather during the day and a nice cool breeze at night. Make sure to keep all your coolers secure because a couple of raccoons broke into several of ours. P.s. There is also an outlet right by the parking lot next to campsite 47.

Another cute park area in this charming small town…read more It's a cozy park, perfect for reading, having a coffee with a friend or letting the kids play for awhile. I thought it was clean, shady and was in a decent location near the local neighborhoods. My wife and I hung out here for a bit while we were visiting her family. It's quiet and worth a stop, especially if you have small children or just want to hang out with a coffee and talk.

This is a hiking park, not a playground type of park as there are not playgrounds, nor sports…read morefields. Rather, it is a wooded area with multiple mapped out trails, and some that are not mapped. You can spend a couple of hours here or all day and hike up to the Cherokee County line if you wanted to. There are multiple abandoned structures which were cool. The kids enjoyed playing in and around them and are there plenty of "off the beaten path" places to explore. People also bring their horses and bikes here, as it can get pretty muddy after a rain. I have also seen people doing photoshoots in this picturesque park.

Then you travel down a winding dirt road till you get to a clearing with a marked map (and trees) to keep you on your path. This is not a, swing on the monkey bars, slide down the slide, park. This is an amazing park with hiking trails that literally go over the river (stream) and through the woods. Lots of different trails of varying degrees of difficulty. Great for a stroll, or actual exercise, if that's your thing. There's a wide open field with a cute barn, great for photos, that's about a 5 min walk from the parking place. There's also a little creek that runs down the middle of mountains, one steep, the other more gradual. This park has so many different types of trees, flowers, and mushrooms, and insects, with little plaques that let you know about the local greenery and wildlife. Also. YOU CAN BRING HORSES TO TRAIL RIDE! Horses!! We love going bc the kids almost always get to say hello to a horse or 4. Overall, just a really fun outdoor activity. So obviously touch all things at your own risk. General rule, take nothing but memories, leave nothing but foot prints... but we have picked some things for inspiring the kids in science. There's apps that identify plants, mushrooms, and rocks. I recommend having them. Pros -it's free. 100% free. -any skill level hiking -beautiful and calming -not too busy. -great open field with barn for pictures... or frisbee, running and singing songs about nature. Do you. -perfect picnic place -can hunt for mushrooms -can trail ride on horseback (byoh bring your own horse) Cons -a little hard to find the first time That's it. This places is a winner.
