쉬운 오버턴 카운티 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

This short trail starts from the parking lot of the Garden Inn Bed & Breakfast. The trail itself is somewhat steep and there's a decent set of stairs to get to the viewpoint, but it's still walkable for most people, and the view at the end is definitely worth it.

If you're unable to get a permit to hike down to the gorge, this makes a good second option. It's only a short walk from the parking area, but the views over the falls make it worth your while. You can book your gorge hiking permit here: https://reserve.tnstateparks.com/cummins-falls/permits

The trail to Cummins Falls isn't long, but that doesn't mean it's easy. There are a number of water crossings and rock scrambling to be done, so be sure to have appropriate footwear, hiking sandals or water shoes would be best for this one.

These falls are the star attraction here, and for good reason. Not only are they beautiful, you can also go swimming in the pool at the bottom of the falls. Not many better places to be on a hot summer's day. Day-use permits are required for this area, so be sure to get yours in advance here: https://reserve.tnstateparks.com/cummins-falls/permits

It's only a short walk from the parking lot to the summit, but the views are incredible. If you're passing through on I-40 and want to stretch your legs, this is a good spot to do it.
