Bad Creek Access parking, start here and hike .06 mile to the whitewater river. Don't cross the river on the newly repaired bridge but hike up the trail on the left side of the river and immerse yourself in this wonderful natural area called Coons Branch.

Hot humid day in the Upstate of South Carolina. Sun shining on the canopy of trees offering me shade as I followed the path through these pleasing woods. About a mile to the ending as the trail ended where the rivers bank began. I returned and saw the picturesqueness of the trail from the other direction. Easy hike. Peaceful atmosphere.
