Waterfall Trail
Licklog & Pigpen Falls
Description: From Walhalla, drive 8.2 miles N on SC28, then 6.5 miles N on SC107 taking a right turn at Cheohee Rd. The Foothill Trail picks up across SC107. You will hike the Foothills Trail for approx. 2.5 miles and come to a clearing and the falls of Pigpen. Cross the footbridge to continue for .2 mile on the Chattooga Trail and the first level of Licklog Falls will be to the right of the trail. The second level is approximately 50 yards downstream of the first. Continuing on a short distance, you will come to the Chattooga River.

The 80-foot Licklog Falls and the Pigpen Falls are much prettier than their names imply. Interestingly, these two falls are among five waterfalls you could visit by hiking the entire Chattooga Trail, which should emphasize the steep and wild nature of this terrain. Even so, this is an ideal area for a family outing.

We had 7 hikers today and such beautiful weather. I was concerned whether I would have knee problems today, but all was well. I remembered to take two Advil and my banana before I left the house this am. The treking poles probably helped as well.
