The Crabtree Falls Trail features a series of five cascades and a number of smaller ones that fall a total distance of 1,200 feet.
The trail provides views of the falls from overlooks constructed to accent the beauty of the valley. The first overlook is just 700 feet from the lower parking lot, making it an excellent stopover for travelers. The more adventuresome hiker may continue to other overlooks, to Crabtree Meadows where the trail ends, or to the Appalachian Trail, which is just one half mile beyond Crabtree Meadows.
