The Honey Creek Loop Trail contains some of the most rugged and beautiful terrains in the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area.
The entire loop trail system is only 5.6 miles in length, travel time is slow and the going is very difficult. Long steep stairs are located along the Honey Creek Loop Trail.
Honey Creek Loop Trail requires hikers to cross creeks and at times to travel in the creek bed itself. Traveling through boulder fields may require using your hands and knees to climb over and among boulders. Trail tread in these sections is often uneven, wet, and slippery. Extreme care should be taken when hiking in these areas. It is recommended that you do not take young children and pets on this trail. To be safe and enjoy the scenery, allow a minimum of 1 hour hiking time per mile.
