Photo perfect, cloudy day. Picnic right beside the creek with BJ after which we sat off up the creek. All these cascades and a beautiful falls are easily accessible for even a novice hiker.

The Trail2368 viewsThe surface of Guest River gorge Railtrail is the best we have seen, bar none.

If you live in Tri-Cities area of Tennessee or SW Virginia and want to ride long distances I would suggest I-81.

If you want a short bike ride with breath taking scenery drive up to Coeburn, Va.

This is as easy as it gets to see a waterfall.
