Review & FAQ:
Inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park lies a group of very high peaks, and in that cluster liesBig Cataloochee Mountain. At 6,155 feet in elevation at the summit, this tall mountain is one of the most isolated in the region, and the hike to the top is a long one, with a round trip of about 16 miles. Hiking to the summit of Big Cataloochee is usually a 2-day affair, and hikers should check ahead to make sure certain trails and campsites are not closed due to bears, which are very prominent in this secluded part of the park.
