#### Drive along this woodland loop for a range of walking trails, waterfalls and historic structures of an old mountain hamlet.

Roaring Fork is a scenic stream that flows through the dense forest of the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Follow the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail for stunning views of the creek and its picturesque surroundings. Listen to the roar of the stream echoed in the area’s mountainous valleys.

After intense rainfall, the stream becomes a rampant torrent of intense rapids. In dry weather, it gently trickles over the rocks and branches of the forest floor. Encounter the old wooden cabins that make up the Roaring Fork Historic District. These are the vestiges of an old mountain hamlet with its own school and church. See the hamlet’s former store and stop at the grist mill.

Embark on the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail through this historic area. The trail is a 5.5-mile (8.8-kilometre) automobile loop that runs through the dense woodland. Note that the road has one-way traffic and is too narrow for trucks, RVs and trailers. 

Step out of the car and take a walking tour around the historic structures of the Noah “Bud” Ogle farmstead, where you’ll find a map of the Roaring Fork attractions. From here, start the 5.4-mile (8.7-kilometre) round-trip hiking trail to find scenic Rainbow Falls.

Get back on the road until you reach the Trillium Gap Trail, which leads to Grotto Falls. Climb to the crevasse at the back of this waterfall and see it from behind. This stunning area is ideal for a picnic, so bring snacks and drinks. Drive to the Place of a Thousand Drips to see an 80-foot (24-metre) waterfall after heavy rainfall or gentle cascades during dry weather.

Find Roaring Fork several miles south of Gatlinburg, just inside the Cherokee Orchard entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The auto loop begins right after the Rainbow Falls trailhead. It closes in winter and extreme weather conditions. Check the national park site for specific information. Make sure to see other sights in the area, including the Sugarlands Visitor Centre and Cataract Falls. Visit in spring to see lovely rhododendrons and azaleas along the roadside.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,703 reviews)

The rooms were very outdated. Bathroom door look deteriorated, curtains and room carpets were dirty. Heating/cooling wasn’t able to keep up and very loud. Not enough electrical available for multiple c-pap machines. We were charged too high for garage parking which we weren’t made aware that we would pay extra to park and valet took forever to get our vehicles to the point we had to get our own.

![On the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains NP. Follow the Motor Nature trail to a small lot just before the Alex Cole cabin. This is where the road passes over Baskins Creek. This trail is known as both the Baskins Creek Trail and the Graveyard Ridge Trail. The graveyard is only a few hundred yards from the parking area. The falls on the other hand is about 1.6 miles on a moderate trail. Be careful!! The last time I hiked it there was NO sign marking where to turn left and cross the stream to get to the falls. You can also continue on the Baskins Creek Trail past the turnoff to the falls and wind up back at the Motor Nature trail, near the Rainbow Falls parking area. This entire route is about 2 1/2 miles, but note that the portion past the falls turnoff going to Rainbow Falls is more strenuous than the first part. ALSO: note that this is a one-way road and you will need someone to drive your car back around the Nature Trail to meet you back at the Rainbow Falls parking area.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6326330/185c69c7-5b58-4054-a236-af96750b7628.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh)
