On November 19, Holy Hikers will explore Falling Creek Camp. Located on a ridge above the Upper Green River Valley, this 915 acre property houses a summer camp for boys. The hike will include views of the property’s falls.
We will participate in an approximately 3mile hike that is rated easy-to-moderate in difficulty. Special equipment is not required but trekking poles are always a good idea. Each hiker is responsible for carrying their own epi-pen and should notify the hike leaders upon arrival if they have an insect allergy. Please pack water and lunch. Dogs are allowed but must remain on leash.
Plan to meet at the camp at 10:00AM. If you are carpooling or convoying, plan to meet at St John in the Wilderness no later than 9:30AM. Falling Creek Camp is located 12 miles from St John in the Wilderness at 2900 Green River Rd, Zirconia NC 28790. Turn left into the Camp entrance. There will be a white fence and Falling Creek Camp sign. Once you arrive, you will soon cross through a covered bridge and immediately go left, following the log/flame logo directional signage. The road will meander through a flat wooded area and you will pass an old barn on your left. Continue following the logo signs up hill. It is about 1.2 miles until you crest out on the ridge and begin seeing buildings again. When you reach the Falling Creek Camp sign, Turn left onto Loyalty Road. Then immediately take a quick left again as the “camp office” directional sign points. The camp office is a dark red with grey trim house. We will be meeting here.
