Crabtree Falls 10636 Crabtree Falls Highway, Tyro, VA 22976

"No GPS service so download your map (or code as offline) before driving here. Bring walking sticks with points! Multiple slick areas during wet seasons. Layer your clothing in winter and bring a pack with some water and to carry your layered clothes. NO CELL SERVICE so emergencies will need a runner to the top of the mountain. More challenging than you might think for 1.7 miles up because the elevation change is included in the mileage."

"Beautiful fall hike! Scarce water in the falls but still a site to behold. 1.7 miles uphill and 1.7 miles downhill. Gorgeous views from the top! There are steps that have been built in certain areas. Roots and rocks abound so must be aware. Very well signed with mileage posts along the way. No cell coverage until you reach the top. Not crowded on a Thursday in October. We loved this hike!"

"A breathtaking waterfall, very high in altitude! Approximately a 3.6 mi and 1.1K feet in elevation hike that takes an average of 2 hours to complete. As you walk higher, there are many benches, limited stairs, gets a bit muddy, and rocky. Nonetheless, it’s very well worth it! The first part is also handicapped accessible!"
