Princess Falls Lick Creek Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail Big South Fork National Recreation Area Kentucky Visiting a falls for the first time is always exciting and Princess Falls near the Sheltowee Trace Trail in the Kentucky section of The Big South Fork didn't disappoint. Although the flow was only on the left side of what would be a 40 ft. wide waterfall on a rainy day the scene was still gorgeous. Interestingly, I hadn't realized that I had years before rode past the falls while riding shotgun on what is probably the wildest 4X4 excursion I'd ever been on. The old road is closed to vehicles now and the 1 1/2 mile hike isn't bad at all but it was kind of cool walking along and saying to each other, "Wow! We did that?!"
