Great Smoky Mountains Waterfall Hike

Hosted by Mynydd Mawr C.

5 (1 review)

An easy-going guided hike linking three cascades in the Great Smoky Mountains, timed for soft morning light through the hardwood canopy

Autumn runs are the favorite — the creeks tumble through a tunnel of yellow and red. Sturdy shoes and a camera are all you need.

Starting location: Sugarlands Visitor Center, Gatlinburg

October colors over the cascades were unreal. Easy pace, great stories from the guide.
