Whitewater Falls – Nantahala National Forest

#summervacay Whitewater Falls is the tallest waterfall east of the Rockies, and in summer, it's even more stunning with lush greenery surrounding the cascades. A short, paved trail leads to a spectacular overlook, perfect for photos and cooling mist. The area also connects to more extensive hiking trails if you want to explore deeper. It’s peaceful, scenic, and one of the best natural backdrops you’ll find on a #summervacay in the mountains.
