Eagle Creek Falls, Walden Falls, Deer Skull Falls, Hemlock Falls, Fern Glade Falls, & Wolfpen Falls
Eagle Creek Falls is an off-the-beaten-path destination in the Sipsey Wilderness area of Bankhead National Forest. Bankhead National Forest is filled with moss covered rock formations, tropical ferns and beautiful hemlock trees. The canyon and creek offer a chance to see multiple waterfalls.
This is a tough hike and I would rate it as moderate. There are multiple creek crossings required and the trails are not marked well in some areas. As long as you follow the creekbed downstream you will manage to find your way to the top of the waterfall. Eagle Creek Falls is a gradual cascade of about 20 feet with a small pool at the bottom. You can get to the bottom of the waterfall by going around the ridge to the right.
If you hike downstream from Eagle Creek Falls you will find several other waterfalls.
One of them is Deer Skull Falls. Deer Skull Falls is actually two waterfalls that come together beside each other. Deer Skull Falls is unique because of it's glowing orange color "iron ore" that bleeds out through the rock. The second waterfall beside Deer Skull towers up about 80 feet and drops by steps as it cascades down the canyon.
A little further you will see Walden Falls, Hemlock Falls, Fern Glad Falls, and Wolfpen Falls. There are multiple campsite along this trail perfect for an overnight adventure.
