The Scuppernong Springs area is home to wildlife, fish, and clear, clean springs. Hike this 1-1/2 mile looped trail to discover the remains of a marl plant, hotel, trout pond, sawmill, and cranberry bogs that once existed here. Although the Scuppernong Springs Nature Trail is named after its most prominent spring, Scuppernong Spring is actually only one of at least six different springs along this trail. The springs here contribute to the beautiful, clean, clear flow of the Scuppernong River. See the related web page link above for a 12-page self-guided tour of Scuppernong Springs Nature Trail.
Be prepared - mosquitoes can be a nuisance on this trail during the summer months. Wear appropriate clothing and/or use insect repellent.
Here's a trail map to show the cache location:
While you're at it, there were also at last count seven other caches along the Scuppernong Springs Nature Trail. Why not find them all!!?
