    Cascades National Recreation Trail
    Excellent hike! My brother and I hiked this together, we go hiking a lot throughout the Blue Ridge and we loved this one. We took a harder (but still easy) route crossing over the first bridge that you see. If you keep going straight it is a really easy big open path. The Cascades is beautiful and seems like a fun place to go swimming in, so pack a bathing suit. We went in late afternoon and didn't see too many people out. Totally recommend if you want an easy hiking day!
