Story:
A strenuous 3 - 4 hr hike from beautiful Jones Gap State Park. The hike up to Rainbow Falls is a trail supported by JGSP and then the trail from there up to Pretty Place is on Camp Greenville property. This second section is not as well maintained and has several sections that require using existing ropes and hand holds to advance up the trail. Apologies for missing the first half mile of GPS tracking from JGSP to the beginning of the Rainbow Falls trail intersection.
