77 mile-long thru trail which begins at Table Rock State Park and ends at Oconee State Park. A 5-7 day thru hike, but some of the best section hiking in the area. I highly recommend the Section between Whitewater Falls and Bad Creek trailhead, which can be done in an hour or so. Starting at Whitewater allows you to hike down the very tall and steep staircase at the falls instead of having to hike up them at the end.
