Gabes Mountain Trailhead

This trail to Hen Wallow Falls delivers a solid workout with a steady, continuous uphill climb that's more challenging than it first appears. Hikers consistently praise the peaceful, heavily wooded route with its charming footbridges over streams, though you'll spend most of your time watching your footing on root-tangled and rocky sections rather than enjoying mountain vistas. The falls themselves are pleasant rather than dramatic, but the gradual descent back makes the effort worthwhile.
