Need to Know

The trail is accessed by hiking 0.8 miles on the Panther Branch Trail.

Description

The Emory Gap Trail is a short (0.5mi) spur from the Panther Branch Trail to the Emory Gap Waterfall. The trail is wide but eroded in many locations, so it is a bit more challenging that an easy hike on a gravel road. The trail can be muddy at times.

The trail hugs the creek and terminates at a really nice waterfall!
