Overall this is a great place to experience both woods hiking and Mountain Views, if there were rains before the day you’re hiking, please get prepared for a lot of creek crossing. Be sure to bring a map or take pictures for the trails system at the parking lot. This position tagged on map is not the start of trail #474, it begins from the parking lot tagged on the map besides this one named as “West end parking nantahala forest”.
Keeps on #474 will see many small water fall and a small white sand beach. Shcoolhouse fall is a bigger one compare with those small ones.
Take the route that fit your needs since the trails system has a lot of intersections with different choices.
