Scouts (and parents) need to wear appropriate clothing (including rain gear), pack t-shirt, closed toed shoes (no flip flops) and bring their Cub Scout Six Essentials in a small backpack or book bag. The Pack is happy to reimburse families the $5 per car for park daily pass.
If families have time after the hike, they should check out the new visitor center, including a presentation about the Appalachian Trail; plus take a picture under the AT arch. You can also check out the falls and lodge. https://www. amicalolafallslodge.com/
