About this place
Added by Mason Boring
One of best waterfalls in this part of Tennessee. Great swimming hole in warmer months. Easy to access falls, with plenty of hiking trails nearby.
If you're looking to check out a secnic waterfall in East Tennessee, Bald River Falls is sure to be on your list. At 90 feet, you can't miss this roaring beauty during any season. Also, Tellico Plains is an awesome mountain town in itself; check it out before or after your hike.
To get to Bald River Falls from Tellico Plains, turn onto TN 165 and drive for approximately five miles. Turn right onto FR 210 going past Ranger Station. Bald River Falls is six miles upstream on the right.
