Jul 10, 2018 — There are three trailheads you could use to access this loop, but I started at the southernmost Happy Hollow Trailhead. The disappointing Happy Hollow Trail includes a wide, flat horse trail for the first half, then merges with the narrow and underused River to River Trail leading to a small, but pretty natural bridge. From here, the trail continues onward through forest and occasional small meadow and you can complete the loop, ending with a nice walk along a creek. You can also continue to Hawk's Cave, which is a massive sandstone overhang that is begging to be rock climbed, and then to the most popular parking lot. This leads to the Ferne Clyffe Waterfall along the basically paved Big Rocky Hollow Trail. The falls (when flowing) is nestled in a pretty grotto. Take the road back to the northern Happy Hollow Trailhead and follow the rest of the loop back to the lower trailhead.
