4.4 stars not quite a 5, but a wonderful little spot, the biggest attractions are the waterfall and the tunnel, plus it's a pull out for canoe and kayak who drop in further upstream... It's only a 2 mile walk to Percival's isle and there are a plethora of trail options here. It's really got the city next to and even through it with the train tracks and traffic, but it's pulled back enough to still be peaceful and a great getaway for Lynchburg and surrounding areas... Everyone should stop by and checkout the tunnel at least once!

Bring your hiking boots, be prepared to get wet, maybe bring some climbing gear or bushwhacking gear. Definitely wear your essential oils bug sprays, anti tick, anti mosquitoes... All the normals for a really wild trail. Kind of surprised this super wild trail is in the middle of such an urban area. Kind of a place for off leash but kind of not, there are plenty of people traveling including people riding horses, people with dogs, hiking, bike riders, all kinds of activity back here, like 8 miles of trails it really goes on and about. There are some trails and marked paths but know this place is full of wild energy,which we all know is the best place to be, so enjoy it fully. There is no real parking you just kind of park off the streets and getting too/from the place by vehicle is a bummer, but totally worth it if you are into just the wild basics of nature with little to no structure of man. We will get better pics next time, we were too busy having fun to snap photos!

These are amazing human souls changing the world through sustainable organic agriculture and honoring all life as sacred. I am grateful to be connected to and support such beautiful souls who are using regenerative agriculture and permaculture and ancient ancestral techniques as well as newly engineered techniques of their own and collaborative design. Support these folks whole heartedly!
