HIKING: Obed Wild & Scenic River

← TN SOUTH FK CUMBERLAND RIVER LEATHERWOOD FORD TN Triple Blaze →

Description

Regardless of the time of year, every season offers its own special rewards to those who take the time to explore the Obed Wild and Scenic River on foot. Visitors interested in a short, easy walk will enjoy the hike to Lilly Bluff Overlook, a mere five minutes down a wide, relatively flat path. The trail ends in a winding network of overlook platforms which provide lofty and commanding views of Clear Creek canyon's sheer sandstone walls and of the river far below. The self-guided Emory River Nature Trail, a .7 mile loop which begins at Rock Creek Campground and which follows the banks of the Emory River, will also provide the visitor with an introduction to the cultural and natural resources of the Obed Wild and Scenic River.<br />
