we started hiking [or rather walking] to the laurel falls, which were beautiful, but too crowded with people. to enjoy pure nature we went off the trail and wandered through the woods.
fascinated by flaura and fauna and highly motivated from the wild hiking, we climbed onto the meigs falls. we did not take pictures as we got quite wet, but facing my fears was hard, but totally worth it.
this road..
..took us to the border between tennessee and north carolina, where - once again - we watched the sunset.
further up, at Clingsman's Dome at an altitude of 2,o24 meter, we finally found out, why the smokies have their name.
watch the sunset..
disappear.
that's what the view is like, when clear:
on the south side of the smoky mountains, right by cherokee, we visited the mingus falls with an altitude of 55 meters.
