Description

The shorter trail, which is a part of the longer Mountains to Sea Trail, will take you from Pineola Road down to the popular Hunt Fish Falls. The trail descends steadily on its way to Lost Cove Creek and the falls. From the waterfall, you can access the Lost Cove Trail as well to extend your run.
