4. Big Bradley falls
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 35 reviews
Reviewed By jhornerdvm - Franklin, United States
The Little Bradley falls is beautiful as well and quite large. It is about 1.1 mile hike from the road opposite of the Big Bradley entrance. This past spring there was a lot of flooding and slides with down trees. The hike is still very doable. Follow the red dot markers on trees along the trail The trail starts uphill to the left. The lower trail dies out about 1/4 mile in, due to debris and down trees. Just take your time and stay away from the edges where you can. There are 2 water crossings, one is likely to get wet, so water shoes are helpful.
