Hiking
I've hiked this trail many times, and it amazes me every time. This is a tougher hike and would not be recommended for small children. The terrain gets pretty steep, and many boulders to climb over, under, and around. Once you get to the top, though, it makes it all worth it. There is a fire trail you can use that is much easier but still requires climbing towards the top.
*Effective 3/1/22 they require a ticket/permit to hike this trail due to overcrowding. The permit is $1 per person but needs to be purchased prior to going as there's no cell service at the base. You can find more info at www.nps.gov

Beautiful trails that are fairly easy to navigate. There are many amazing spots for pictures. The lower falls are the easiest to get to but the upper falls do get steeper and have a more rugged terrain. The cell service is very spotty heading towards Graves Mountain, may want to download directions beforehand.

Graves Mountain is a beautiful place to visit, pass it on the way to hiking trails. The cell service is spotty so I would download directions prior to going. Different times throughout the year they have different events, like fireworks on the 4th, Apple festival in the fall, bluegrass music, etc. They also offer horseback riding.

If you're really feeling adventurous Skydive Orange is a great place to go. My husband went a few years ago and everyone was very friendly and professional. He got an amazing video to remember the moment!
