- ***More Than Just A Hike - This Is An Experience*** This is suitable for all levels, beginners to advanced. We're going to ditch the crowds and traffic and head out for a waterfall hike off the beaten path in the Smoky Mountains! ***Please note: Booking Private Groups Only. If you request a date, please select Private Group.*** This trail features several excellent waterfalls and cascades and is arguably one of the best waterfall hikes in the national park. We'll be unplugged, free from the distractions of our phones. This hike also includes gratitude, so please bring a positive attitude! We'll start the hike with gratitude so we can be in the right frame of mind. We'll play some other gratitude games using a deck of cards called The Grateful Deck that contain fun questions that remind us to be grateful and positive. There is a place along the trail to stop and sit by the waterfalls, while playing the Grateful Game. Since there are no phones on this hike, I'll take pics. Feel free to bring a regular camera. ***Other things to note*** - Booking Private Groups Only. - Experience is 3 Hours. - Kids are welcome. - We'll meet at Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont.

The boat is equipped with a clean restroom, music, coolers, and enclosed cabin in case of a pop up storm. Other things to note Trips are fully customizable.
