Absolutely fabulous trail. The trail was not crowded on an April weekend even with a great weather. Google map gives the correct direction and other apps not that reliable. When on route 41, watch out for NPS’s Glade Creek sign just before the bridge that crosses New River. Continue on gravel road for six miles and there will be a single car only wooden bridge. The parking lot at the trailhead is large. The campground has restroom facilities. Make sure to trek to Kates falls, through a little spur off the main trail. We want to visit in summer and enjoy the swimming holes on the creek. There were a few nice camping sites on the trail. Ideal for spending an entire day and enjoy the awesome scenery.
