Located just outside the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area in the Daniel Boone National Forest in southern Kentucky, Princess Falls and Lick Creek Falls are found within an easy hike from one another.
From the Whitley City trailhead, follow Lick Creek Trail No. 631 along an old roadbed atop a ridge for one mile which eventually peters out to a fairly worn footpath. The trail descends 300 feet in elevation, passing under a rock shelter before reaching Lick Creek at mile two. At 2¼-miles, Lick Creek Falls Trail No. 631A splits to the left, connecting to Lick Creek Falls. At 3.4 miles, Princess Falls comes into view.
