WILDERNESS FALLS, TN-1.JPG
Upper Middle2100 viewsThere being another falls above this one and this one being divided into three parts, we call it the
upper part of the middle falls.

We estimated it to be about 150' high. We also plan to return with a Hypsometer for a more accurate measurement and measurement of the cascade of falls located here.

LAUREL FORK FALLS, TN-1.JPG
Laurel Fork Falls2333 viewsThis is one of the most visited falls in the area due to it's being located on the Appalachian Trail.

To reach the falls and get a good hike, venture up Dennis Cove Road and park at the well marked Appalachian Trail crossing.

There are at least two more falls on the way if you are a little more experienced.

If you want a little more difficult hike, park at the crossing in Hampton, TN.

Really East Tennessee2186 viewsThis waterfall measures only 12 ft high. This web site qualifies any cascade above 8 ft as a waterfall.

With this in mind, this may be the most Eastern waterfall in Tennessee.
