However you reach the Falls, it’s well worth the effort. From the top, it's a spectacular vertical drop of 404 feet. From below, it's a cool, refreshing stop. Hickory Nut Falls, one of the highest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River, can be reached by hiking along the Skyline-Cliff Trail Loop to its top or by taking the gentler walk via the Hickory Nut Falls trail to a platform at its bottom. Get a majestic perspective of the Falls from Peregrine's Rest on the Skyline trail, or Inspiration Point along the Cliff trail.
