In this episode, Jennie and her family visit Cove Creek Falls in Brevard and talk about autism.
[Editor’s Note: This is part of Cardinal & Pine’s ongoing “Neurodiversity in Nature” series, centering on a North Carolina mom and her neurodivergent family’s explorations in nature.]
Let’s explore Cove Creek Falls and unpack autism spectrum disorder.
📍Hike Details: Cove Creek Falls is located in Pisgah National Forest and is a 3.8 RT loop hike.
Make sure you check out the kid-friendly sliding rock that is located between the lower and upper campground along the route. The easiest way to get to the waterfall is to pass the upper campground and follow the trail next to the creek until you reach the falls. Leave no trace and please don’t move the rocks.
