Bald River Falls — photo spot in River Rd, Tellico Plains, TN 37385, USA
Bald River Falls
Bald River Falls is a 90-foot horsetail waterfall in Cherokee National Forest, visible from a roadside overlook with an easy short trail to lower vantage points. Photograph the full cascade framed by mossy boulders and hardwoods — dramatic in spring runoff, colorful in fall and icy in winter. Best light is early morning or late afternoon side-light; golden hour adds warmth. Small pullout parking off River Rd/Forest Service Rd; no fee. Weekdays or shoulder seasons reduce crowds.
