Lovers Leap Loop
Really 3.5.
Sunny and 80. Solo, Anne stayed and shopped. Great short hike along French Broad for 1/2 mile then up switchbacks to top for about 1/2 mile overlooking river and town. Then down through woods on other side. Would be little easier going other way, clockwise since I had steps up and down with no steps. Trail well traveled and good shape.
