Come to Greenville, SC and enjoy Paris Mountain State Park! The Sulpher Springs Trail will increase your heart rate and cool your heels. Park at the bottom of the mountain and hike up the bike free zone for a cool hike along side a stream. You will pass a small lake that was once used to supply water to the city of Greenville.

It is worth the short hike to the dam just to see how well made it is. Continue up the trail and follow the stream as it rushes past you on its way to the bottom.

It"s not a easy trail to hike, but plenty to see and enjoy as you go to the top.

On the down ward side of the trail, its all down hill-that was bad, wasn't it? Bikers are allowed on the trail so beware, every biker I've encountered has been very careful not to run over me, step out of the way and you will be fine. The trail is being rerouted and looks like it will have more switchbacks and be easier to ride up or down, or to hike up or down. Trail is about 3.5 mile loop trail takes about two hours and has a bathroom at the parking area. Get out and get moving! Remember you can go either way on the trail.
In the woods or on the water,
