Description

This simple road is a great way to access some of the great trails located at Bottom Creek Gorge. From the parking area, you'll enjoy a shady path as it winds gently uphill to reach the Duval Trail, the Johnston Trail and the Knight Trail, which will lead to even better views of the creek and surrounding forest.
