Ramsey Cascades Trail

Located in the scenic Greenbrier area of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Ramsey Cascades Trail is a challenging 4-mile hike each way that leads to the tallest waterfall in the park. This out-and-back trail winds through old-growth forest, crossing streams and climbing steadily toward one of the Smokies’ most impressive natural landmarks.

At the end of the trail, Ramsey Cascades tumbles more than 100 feet over massive rock formations, creating a powerful and unforgettable sight. For hikers seeking a rewarding adventure and a true backcountry waterfall experience, this trail delivers one of the most dramatic destinations in the Smoky Mountains.
