If you love the idea of cooking up a brown trout, brook trout, or rainbow trout in a cast iron skillet over your campground fire, do a bit of trout fly-fishing in Wilson’s Creek. Even if you don’t happen to catch anything, you’ll still love the hike through the area, along with the views of the four main waterfalls: Gragg Prong Falls, Harper Creek Falls, Hunt Fish Falls, and Ten Foot Falls.
Rather stay on the water? Then give kayaking a try. Whether you enjoy calmer waters (Class I-III) or want to be challenged by Class IV to Class V rapids, there are options along Wilson’s Creek that are perfect for your experience level so you are sure to have an adventure-filled day. With the fall foliage as a backdrop, your entire family is sure to love kayaking.
Experience the unchanged beauty and hospitality of Lenoir!
The bottom line is that fall is an excellent time to enjoy all that Wilson’s Creek has to offer. Regardless of what outdoor activity you and your family love most, visit Lenoir & the NC Foothills for an experience like none other.
