During the warmer months, it's a popular spot for summer swimming, too! All that beauty combines to make this one of the best waterfalls in Tennessee.

2. Burgess Falls

Putnam County has the ability to boast in Burgess Falls, a cascading wall of water that puts rural Tennessee on the map. Burgess Falls State Park is only open during the daytime, so be sure to check hours! Plus? There are a total of FOUR falls in the park, making a stop here a mini Tennessee waterfall tour all of its own.

3. Ozone Falls

4. Fall Creek Falls

Famous for appearances in feature films and wildly popular amongst Tennesseans, Fall Creek Falls State Park is one of the most visited parks during the warmer months. Uniquely, Fall Creek Falls straddles both Van Buren and White counties. It's also the tallest waterfall in the state.

5. Twin Falls

Just. Look. AT. THIS. PICTURE. You really can't beat Tennessee in any season, but during autumn? Well, then you really can't beat Tennessee. Twin Falls
