Wooded ridge trail with panoramic overlooks, rocky outcrops, seasonal wildflowers and creek crossings—great for intimate forest scenes, fall color panoramas and sunrise/sunset rim shots. Small wild area with unpaved trail and limited parking at 715 TVA Rd; no fee. Best light: golden hour for overlooks, soft overcast for stream/forest detail. Weekday mornings have few hikers; wear boots and insect repellent.
