    Hiking

    The South Harper Creek Falls Overlook has tremendous views of not only South Harper Creek Falls but also Grandfather Mountain. These falls can be accessed by scrambling down to the swimming pool at the base, but most decide to stick to the safe route and just view the falls from a distance.
