Drive south from Sevierville and you are in the Smokies in about half an hour, which puts twenty-five falls in range. Grotto Falls is the pick when a dog is coming along, since the trail permits them and the path runs behind the water. Laurel Falls is paved and short at 2.6 miles, so it works with small kids, and it stays busy for that reason. Rainbow Falls climbs hard for 5.4 miles. Ramsey Cascades goes further still, eight miles and 2,200 feet up, and it takes most of a day.

Located at 35.8872°N, -83.5678°W
