Details

Join us as we hike to 10 gorgeous waterfalls this year!

Fall Creek Falls (FCF), at 256 feet, is one of the highest waterfalls in the eastern United States. Other waterfalls within the park include Piney Falls, Cane Creek Falls and Cane Creek Cascades.

With more than 26000 acres of streams, waterfalls, natural hardwoods, cascades, and gorges to explore, this is the largest and most popular state park in Tennessee.

Carpooling: Meet at 7am at Publix in Lebanon right off I-40. Fromhere, it's under 2 hours to the trailhead. If you want to carpool to Lebanon, that's on you.

We'll head home about 4 and grab dinner in Cookeville. Back to Nashville around 6:30-7.
