Lick creek Falls is a waterfall on the Lick creek. This is a very scenic hike, and the falls itself is in a steep V-shaped canyon. The trails are nicely marked, but the falls are actually on a small side trail about 2 and a quarter miles from the Yamacraw parking lot. You will also pass princess falls if you use this route so its a two-for-one hike.

The trail is mapped by the Forest service as Trail #631. You can find the map here: (visit link)

I do not like the trail entrance as listed on the map. There is a private property with a no parking sign right at the entrance. So I prefer to enter at the other end of the trail, at the Yamacraw bridge on Highway 92 north of stearns Ky. If you take 92 from stearns there is a parking lot right before you go over the bridge.
