Very cool hike with a 200 foot waterfall at the end .. the hike is different than most because on the way there you're dropping elevation and it's mostly down hill. The way back takes a bit longer since you're going all up hill. Wear good hiking sneakers. Bring plenty of water especially for the hike back. Follow the trail. Don't try to take any short cuts cuz they aren't short cuts I promise haha

Hemmed-in Hollow is one of the beautiful waterfalls located in the Buffalo River Wilderness Area. This towering waterfall is best accessed from the river. The trail is located between Steele Creek and Kyle's Landing, both popular camp areas and river access points along the Buffalo National River. I don't think the trail is marked, but it's not a secret and there are usually plenty of people who can guide you on where to stop. It's about a 1.5 mile trip each way with a little elevation gain...but not a difficult hike. You can reach Hemmed-in Hollow over land, but that is a more strenuous hike.
Beautiful day to hike.
Hemmed-in Falls. When we arrived, there was just a trickle of cold water flowing. For best viewing of the waterfall, go after a good rain.
