This public hiking trail is located north of State Route 973 along Wallis Run Road (State Route 1003).  Beginning at the Cotner Farm this trail travels moderately steep terrain for 1.6 miles before climaxing at the beautiful Jacoby Falls.  Although it is an easy hike, you should still be careful, as rocks may be slippery.  A round trip can be completed easily within 3 hours even if you stop periodically to enjoy the sights.  The final reward is Jacoby Falls, a tranquil waterfall where cold and clear mountain water falls for 29 feet before crashing on the rocks below.  This waterfall is exceptionally brilliant not only in the early spring months when water is abundant, but also in the autumn when set against a background of color.  A winter hike will lead you to a frozen cascade of blue ice, a sight to see.  Enjoy your hike!
