✓ Verified
Cascade Falls on the Middle Prong Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park rewards hikers with a 60-foot plunge into a clear pool. The trail winds through old-growth forest past remnants of a historic logging community, making it equal parts natural wonder and history lesson. Best visited in spring when snowmelt swells the cascade to full power.
