HIGHLIGHTS:  The Foothills Trail and Chattooga River Trail share the route from Burrell's Ford to Lick Log Creek which follows the banks of the Chattooga National Wild And Scenic River past Kings Creek Falls and down to Salt Trough Ford.  This hike is a moderate route that hugs the river and heads southbound from the Burrell's Ford Parking Area to an intersection with the Bartram Trail at Lick Log Creek.  Here the Chattooga River Trail continues along the banks of the river with the Bartram Trail.  The Foothills Trail turns east, however, and makes a gradual ascent to SC 107 where there is a small parking area a few hundred feet past the road.  There are some nice campsites along the river, particularly in the Salt Trough Ford and Lick Log Creek areas and both campsites are frequently visited by overnight backpackers.
