Hike to Lynn Camp Prong Cascades

This is one of those trails that feels like a gift — almost no effort for a spectacular payoff. You'll start on an old logging railroad bed in the Tremont area, which means the path is wide, flat, and forgiving underfoot. The Middle Prong of Little River keeps you company the entire way, gurgling through boulders just off to your left. Rhododendron tunnels close in overhead, and in late June they explode into bloom. The trail narrows in a couple of spots where the hillside has slumped away, so you'll pick your way carefully for a few steps before the path opens back up. At the end, Lynn Camp Prong Cascades drops in a dramatic curtain over a mossy rock face — far more impressive than you'd expect from such a short walk. Perfect for families with young kids, anyone recovering from yesterday's ambitious ridge hike, or photographers who want a waterfall shot without earning it the hard way.
