    Bald River Falls is accessible from the Cherohala Skyway. - Hwy 165 in Tennessee or NC Hwy 143 to TN Hwy 165 if coming from North Carolina.  

    You have to turn off The Cherohala Skyway and go about 6 miles.  The falls can be viewed from the bridge of the road just before a small parking lot.  The view is stunning!  I suspect in warmer months, you'd get a bunch of waders in the pool below the falls.

    Additionally there's a trail to the top of the falls.  I didn't hike the trail this time but it will give me something to look forward for next time.

    This is definitely a must see attraction of you are visiting the area.
