This One Easy Hike In Tennessee Will Lead You Someplace Unforgettable
The hike to Laurel Falls may not be the most difficult hike in the state, but it sure is one of the most beautiful and amazing, culminating in a view of the falls. Take a look at this gorgeous hike and pack your bags – this is going to be your favorite day trip of the summer. Promise.
Laurel Falls clocks in at 80-feet tall, sending a gorgeous cascade of water into the crush of rocks below. Plus, you can take a solid hike to get there.
The trail is roughly paved, but isn't the best if you're bringing a stroller. You'll most definitely want to watch your little ones very closely the entire trail.
One thing we REALLY want to stress - no matter how magical the falls, please do NOT climb up or around it, on the rocks especially. Great beauty can be extremely dangerous and we don't want any accidents with our fantastic adventurers.
You're looking at about 2.6 miles round trip, from the head of the trail to the falls and back.
It's a moderate hike with a great reward at the end of it. You'll fall in love with the lush summer colors, and the beauty of autumn leaves when our pretty September bleeds into fall.
