Quillen Creek Loop - Riddle Falls, Big Cascade, Quillen Cascade - Bankhead National Forest

The Quillen Creek Trail is located near Mount Hope, Alabama. This is a difficult 4.9 mile hike that requires some navigations skills. There are multiple creek crossings (one knee deep), boulder scrambling, and crawling under/over fallen trees. At times, there is no visible trail to follow so it’s very easy to get turned around. Overall, the scenery is very nice and there are several waterfalls and cascades worth seeing. Riddle Falls, Big Cascade, Keyhole Falls, and Quillen Cascade are a must see in the area.
