Comments
We'll park outside the Arboretum at Bent Creek River Park and walk up to the Visitor Center and gardens via Wesley Branch Trail, where we will find trolls. We'll find all the trolls and, as a bonus, go through the Bonsai exhibit before hiking around to the Carolina Mountain Trial to Bent Creek Trail and back to the parking lot.
