To the people/persons who have experience in this area. Can you please recommend some good trail guide books for this area showing hiking trails etc.
Or is it just better to get brochures at the trail heads?
Thanks.

Go to linvillegorge.net forum and you will find tons of information.
Aim for the moon, if you miss, at least you will still be among the stars.

Do not get the National Geographic maps. Don't rely on brochures at the trailheads; there aren't any. USFS maps may be available at the Info cabin, but they won't show all the trails. Do your homework. Hike safely. Have fun.
It will be OK. You'll find a wealth of information. Have fun in the Gorge.

Hope you're in decent shape. The all-downhill trip into the Gorge was terrific. The trip back up - not so much. lol Beautiful country, though.
Yep, Be prepared for long rugged uphills, scrambles and unbelievable views! So give yourself plenty of time to reach destinations because we measure hours by the mile not the other way around.... so keep in mind you wont go as far as what you're use to on more groomed and flatter trails elsewhere.
