Fall Creek Falls - Fun for everyone!
Did you know that Fall Creek Falls has the tallest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains? And it’s practically in our back yards! Less than two hours away from Knoxville, Fall Creek Falls is full of waterfalls (yes, there’s more than one!), nature, wildlife, playgrounds, and perfect picnic spots.
At the Falls you can take short trails to scenic overlooks or traverse longer, overnight trails. No matter where you go, beautiful hemlocks, rhododendrons, and yellow poplars mark the way, and on the rocks around the falls are different layers of texture and color, the evidence of millions of years of transition from sandy dunes, to tidal plains and salt marshes.
Get this: there’s even a buffet for those who forget to pack or don’t feel like packing food. Why, the wilderness has never been more luxurious!
