Breathtaking Falls. There is a decent hike and stairs if you want to hike it. Around 800 steps or so all the way to the top. Alternatively you can drive to the top of the falls. A great place for pictures.

Milder white water rafting on the beautiful Nantahala (Cherokee word for the Noon Day Sun. Meaning the river does not see the sun till noon because it is between the mountains). Beautiful scenery and a great time.
