Copperas Falls Trail in Clifty Wilderness
The Copperas Falls Trail offers a serene creekside journey through the Clifty Wilderness, where hikers can enjoy the sound of flowing water and dense forests. Along the way, you'll pass lush rhododendron groves, rock outcrops, and scenic views leading to the 40-foot Copperas Falls, which cascades dramatically over a cave. While the trail is not officially maintained, its well-trodden path makes it relatively easy to follow, though the occasional creek crossing and uneven terrain can challenge hikers. #Hiking #Waterfall #River #Forest #Nature
