Angel Falls Overlook — Big South Fork

Want a hike with a big payoff but not an all-day commitment? The Angel Falls Overlook Trail is a 4-mile round trip from Leatherwood Ford to one of the best gorge views in Big South Fork — perfect for a morning out from your stay at Big South Glamping.

What to expect

Rated moderate, about 2–3 hours. The trail follows the river through hardwoods and sandstone before opening to the overlook above the Angel Falls rapids. Bring water and a camera.
