Springtime is perfect for the 3-hour drive to visit all six of the Smoky Mountains' stunning “no-hike” waterfalls! This easy road trip takes you to six beautiful waterfalls in and around the Great Smoky Mountains that you can see with little to no walking at all! Most of these falls can be seen right from a roadside pull-off or just a few steps from the parking area, making this trip great for anyone who wants amazing views without the work of a long hike. Along the way you’ll also pass through several classic mountain towns in Tennessee and North Carolina, where you can stop for local food, browse small shops, or take in scenic overlooks before heading to the next waterfall. By the end of the drive, you’ll have seen six of the Smokies’ most beautiful roadside waterfalls all in one fun half-day trip.
