Hemlock Springs Trail

Hemlock Springs Trail is a 1.35-mile one-way trail in Scott's Gulf Wilderness State Park, Tennessee. It is rated moderate, has a natural surface and is open to hiking. Hemlock Springs intersects with the main Virgin Falls Trail at 1.3 miles in, and should be used after heavy rains to avoid the “Cable Crossing” over Big Laurel Creek which may be dangerous to cross. Hemlock Springs Trail is a pleasant hike, with lots of hemlocks, and rock features. Hemlock Springs itself resurges from a bluff below the trail.
