Big Run Falls from the Limerock Trail
While I don't recommend carrying a mountain bike up the Limerock Trail as there isn't a lot of good places to ride up that way, and it's a long 4½ miles hauling over a few waterfalls and cliff edges, it can be done. Better just done walking, and enjoying the scenery.
