Miles and Directions
Start from the parking lot on CR 618. Cross the road to the
south and you will see the Lost Falls Trailhead clearly marked.
As you enter the woods, there is a sign that points to the Never
Never Land Bike Trail to the right (west) and the Laurel Falls
Trail to the south. Follow the orange blazes of the Laurel Falls
Trail. The path throughout is a combination of dirt and rock bed.
It is wide here, about 4 feet, with plenty of pine trees.

The trail is a large flat rock bed. Come to a Y. The right fork

tinue on the main orange-blazed trail.
