The Whites Creek Trail is a 18.6 mile lollipop loop within the Irish Wilderness. The major trailhead into the Wilderness is Camp Five Pond located off Highway J. Trail markers along the Whites Creek Trail are minimal. Visitors are exposed to a wide variety of natural terrain. It starts out relatively flat and traverses through many ecological zones including dried creek beds, grasslands, glades, bluff country, and breathtaking views overlooking the Eleven Point River. There are three short spur trails from the main trail at Fiddler Spring, Whites Creek Float Camp, and Bliss Spring. There is also trail access near Brawley Pond.
This is the main trail into and through the Irish Wilderness. Rugged and primitive. - Submitted by Jeff Fes
