It’s a great hike. Just know that even though it says 8.8 miles, it is actually 11.5.

This is one of the great hikes of Tennessee. Be prepared to traverse long stretches of rock fields on which you’ll need good balance and strong ankles. There’s one steep climb leading to the ridge line that takes you to Raven’s Point, but the elevation change isn’t too bad other than that stretch. Enjoy this one. It’s moderately tough.

Climb at Foster Falls SP

Foster Falls will suit any climber. A novice climber can find routes here, and an expert can find new and exciting projects. There are a few camping sites near the climbing area. Father Adams which is a primitive spot, and Foster Falls campground which has a shower and toilets (around $16 a night), are a few I know of that are close. The price is fairly nice if you have a big group. Foster Fall...

To get to the trailhead, you have to cross the road from small parking area and go back 20 - 30 yards, where you will find a small marker pointing out the trail on the right side of the road.
