From the mysterious disappearance of Roanoke settlers to the Wright brothers' first flight, the Outer Banks are historically important yes, but they are also postcard pretty with enough beach to share between summer visitors.
The trail begins on Trail No. 132 at Berry Camp, a small primitive campsite in the northern portion of the Wilderness, at the intersection with Trail No. 158. Dropping 400 feet in approximately 1 mile, the Big Hollow Trail No. 158 meets a fork of Hollow Creek that should be forded with care. Continuing downhill 2 miles, the trail intersects Trail No. 194. In June, a 2-foot water crossing through Big Hollow Creek provides a challenge for trail visitors, with a swift current, so proceed with caution! After the water crossing, the trail terminates in about 1/2 mile on Forest Road 64
