Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Burgess Falls, which can be found within Burgess Falls State Park, is one of the most impressive waterfalls in all of Tennessee. The large and unusually shaped natural phenomenon is absolutely breathtaking to see in person and towers at over 132 feet tall. It is one of the easiest waterfalls to access and is only a ¾ mile walk from the parking lot; most of the path is leveled out and you’ll also get to see two other waterfalls on your way there.

You can see impressive views of the falls and the gorge from the overlook, but descending the steep trail to the brink of the falls is completely worth it.
