Laurel River Trail

The 3.6-mile Laurel River Trail in Pisgah National Forest (trail #310) near Hot Springs is definitely one of the flattest hikes in our mountains – with plenty of mountain scenery along the way. It is a delight for those of us that love the sound of river rapids and lush mountain woodlands. Find many spots to access the Big Laurel Creek and even take a dip. Fishing and mountain biking is allowed too. See full article in Romantic Asheville.
