Trail/Park Official Description

The Honey Creek Loop is the most challenging trail in Big South Fork. Along with the challenge come rewards for the hiker with the time and stamina to undertake the trip. The trail is 5.5 miles in length but requires extra time. Even experienced hikers should allow a minimum of 5 hours to complete this strenuous hike. Hazards include steep narrow trail sections, numerous creek crossings, slick boulders and confusing trail junctions. This hike is not recommended immediately following heavy rainfall or after severe freezing weather.

Midlife Hikers Review

This is one of the most challenging hikes within Big South Fork. When you hike this loop expect to encounter steep narrow trail sections, numerous creek crossings, slick boulders and confusing trail junctions. But earning the locations and views is so worth it.

I would recommend taking a weekend and explore this part of Big South Fork, you will not be disappointed. Just bring a good set of legs and patience! Get off the couch! Remember you’re never too old to hike!

01-01-2016 Update we took another quick new years trip to this location to finish mapping the primitive campsites and waterfalls on the east side of the Honey Creek Loop. Weather was terribly cold but such great memories to kick off the new year! Primitive camp locations map has been updated in the Backcountry section of the site. Another video is available for this trip to show off some of the interesting land features of the East Side.

Custom Midlife Hiking Club Map – Honey Creek Area

After two or three trips to the Honey Creek Scenic Area I was finally able to complete the map of the trail. The existing map(s) of Honey Creek did not include points of interest or potential camping areas. Midlife Hiking Club’s version has more detailed path information, POI’s, Primitive Camps and trailhead information.

Future versions of the map will include exact GPS coordinates of everything shown. You can visit the Honey Creek Post to get your copy or download it from this post.

Please comment or give suggestions for edit if you have any information you want to see on future versions of this map. Thanks for all the support and patience other backpackers had, while I mapped this area!
