    Linville Gorge: Brushy Ridge Trail vs. Devils Hole?

    I’m looking forward to doing an in-out one nighter on one of these trails soon. I haven’t been on either one yet, so they are on my bucket list. I only have time to hike one this fall. For this trip, I want to hike the one with the best camping and most solitude near the river as we plan to do a lot of lollygagg! It will most likely be on an upcoming Thursday night. I’ve watched a few devils hole videos, but I haven’t seen the camping area that’s south of the river crossing on the brushy ridge trail. Can anyone give some info on that area, possibly compare the two?

    I would say Devils Hole Trail. Plenty of camping right at the trails end by river.
    If you take Brushy Ridge you will need to cross the river to get to good camps.
