I get so obsessed with the cliffs and outcrops at Hanging Rock that I do overlook the great waterfalls along the Indian Creek Trail. And they’re quite accessible: Hidden Falls is just 0.4 miles from the Visitor Center and Window Falls is 0.6 miles. There’s also Tory’s Falls, Upper Cascades and Lower Cascades, the later of which Kevin Adams calls “by far the most scenic and photogenic waterfall in the park,” in his book, “North Carolina Waterfalls.”
I’m tentatively planning to backpack the Sauratown Trail this weekend, winding up in Hanging Rock. I’ll pay a visit and report back.
Thanks for the reminder, James.

They are good ones.
