Big Creek Loop:
From the parking area, the trail follows an old road for a short distance before turning right (look for blue trail blazes) and heading down to Big Creek. After leaving the creek, it’s only a short distance up to the Big Creek Loop/Overlook Trail intersection. From here, either head back to the parking area or extend the hike another mile and enjoy the beauty of the Overlook Trail.
Overlook Trail:
This loop begins at the parking lot, but turns east along an upland area. The trail follows the bluffs along the creek and is 1.75 miles long. There are some awesome views from overlooks along the creek and unprotected bluffs over vast upland forests.
