Blue Ridge Parkway-Duggers Falls/Duggers Loop Trail

Normally I wouldn't even consider bothering doing a post on such a short trail, but this trail is mentioned among the 58 or so North Carolina trails in the Blue Ridge Parkway Outdoor Guide. Everyone's ability isn't the same and what may seem like just a leg stretcher to me is all someone else may care to walk. Duggers Falls is at the same location as the Linville Falls (mile post 316.4). Starting at the restrooms and gift shop turning left (yellow arrow pointing the way) the Duggers Falls is a small creek waterfall, and in comparing it to the Linville Falls, it's like a tadpole to a whale. 


One of a few placards along the trail of quotes by someone about nature.This one I particularly like.


Just as the sign says, it's a 20-minute walk.


The bridge over Duggers Creek


Nothing much to look at but was a relaxing sound.



This was the return bridge back to the Jeep. Aaron is helping mom steady herself on the rocks.
