OK Mother Nature, I see you flexing. 💪💦 Located just outside Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the mighty Mingo Falls is a massive, 120-foot waterfall located on the Cherokee Indian Reservation. While Mingo Falls is a short hike, it will still leave you breathless. During the summer, visitors can take in the majestic falls while being surrounded by beautiful rhododendron and mountain laurel. Even though this trail is a bit outside of the Gatlinburg area, it is absolutely worth the trip. Mak
