Sette Sinkholes Trail a Panther Creek State Park

The trail guide marks this trail as "easy," perhaps because of the short length and relatively small change in elevation. Having hiked several trails in this park (including ones labeled as "moderately difficult" and "moderate to difficult"), I don't think I entirely agree simply because the terrain is a bit rough. There are rocky portions, many small slopes that depend on navigating around rocks/tree roots, and at least one somewhat narrow passage between rocks. Nothing too outrageous, but something to be aware of if you have mobility concerns (as I do). (Even my athletic husband found the terrain a bit rough.) Likewise, you may want to especially avoid this trail during the rain because, when we went after a rain, there was abundant evidence of swift water crossing the trail in a few places. The footing would likely be more treacherous than average. Furthermore, I would advise you that my GPS tracked 0.9 miles instead of 0.6 miles (the labeled distance on the trail guide). Still, the sinkholes are definitely worth seeing, in my opinion. If you have very little time to hike and don't mind a little rocky terrain, I would recommend this trail (assuming the weather cooperates). The natural features are very interesting.
