Tumbling more than seventy feet into a deep pool below, Crabtree Creek falls over a towering, sheer cliff, forming one of Western North Carolina’s most beautiful waterfalls. It’s a favorite hiking area directly off the Blue Ridge Parkway north of Asheville, nestled in a rolling terrain filled with wildflowers, clear-flowing creeks, and scenic hardwood forests. (The trailhead is at Crabtree Falls campground - 39000 Blue Ridge Pkwy, google maps for Crabtree Falls seems to lead you to the wrong trail.) (Wildacres, North Carolina, USA)
