Hen Wallow Falls
Hike 4.3 miles round trip from the Cosby area to a tall waterfall that widens as it descends. The forest approach makes this a substantial stop.
Why go
Hen Wallow Falls begins as a narrow stream and spreads widely as it descends a roughly 90-foot rock face. Reaching it from the Cosby area takes a 4.3-mile round trip, so the forest walk is part of the experience. The length makes this a substantial waterfall outing away from quicker roadside views.
What to look for
A 90-foot (27 m) waterfall that begins as a small stream but fans out to a width of 30 feet (9 m) at its base.
Useful to know
Begin at Gabes Mountain Trailhead near Cosby; budget a half day for the 4.3-mile round trip.
