Best Swimming Hole - Dismal Falls


Dismal Falls came as a very nice break from an otherwise hot few days in southern Virginia. It was located about half a mile on a side trail in an stretch of the AT where there weren't many other noteworthy places to see. There was a great swimming hole right underneath the falls and a tentsite just behind a large rock that allowed us to camp near the falls without getting all of our stuff soaked by the mist in the process. The creek was wide and littered with large boulders that made exploring the area a lot of fun. We were very tempted to take a zero day here, but we were running low on food and needed to keep going.
