A traveler’s journal is never complete without witnessing the most exotic work of nature. Unfortunately, no man can cover all of them, but having a selected few on your list can put your regrets to rest. That’s why seasoned travelers need to plan their trips to not miss out on visiting a serene location.

Tennessee is one of those spots that has too much to offer to its tourists. There’s plenty of natural beauty and famous tourist attractions that you must have heard about during conversations. Each of these has its level and a unique value for people who visit these places. And that’s what makes this state of the US an even more popular attraction for tourists.

If you have any vacations or trips coming up and haven’t been to Tennessee, it should be your destination. To get you started planning for it, here are eight most amazing places to visit in Tennessee. You can have these on top of the list and plan for the rest journey as you go. These should minimize your work and set the stage for you to head over there.

1. THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK

At the boundary of Tennessee and North Carolina, The Great Smoky Mountains National Park gives you ample reasons to visit it. Besides admiring its aesthetic view, you can get on board for cycling, fishing, hiking, and camping around this area. If you are looking for a better vantage point, you can book a gondola on the mountain wheel. This ride is impossible to miss and adds unparalleled charm to the other bounties of Pigeon Forge, a city in Tennessee. If you make it this far, then you can’t miss the city’s homemade fudge, island fountain show, go-karts, titanic museum, and more. So you will have to visit this spot yourself to discover its wonders.

2. BIG SOUTH FORK NATIONAL RIVER

This beautiful river stretching across a vast area of Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee will leave you thrilled. The greenery, mountains, valleys, sandstone bluffs, everything is a work of nature’s art. It has a lot to offer by itself, but visitors can still enjoy horse riding, rock climbing, whitewater paddling, and similar other activities. Besides, this place is a camper’s playground, so you will love it even more if that is an area of interest. You can also take a dip at the Bandy Creek Swimming Pool close by this place. Just remember to time the season of your visit, and you will be all set to enjoy its many charms.

3. ROCK ISLAND STATE PARK

Another one of those top tourist attractions is the Rock Island, State Park. The Great Falls Gorge is what defines the magnificent identity of this place. It has significant historical value to the park that dates back to ages. Plus, the cascade waterfall adds immense natural value to this location as it drips into Caney Fork. Situated at the headwaters of the Central Hill Lake, this is an attraction you will regret avoiding. That’s why you should place it at the top of your list.

4. BURGESS FALLS STATE PARK

When you thought waterfalls couldn’t be any more interesting, you get the Burgess Falls State Park. It is another one of Tennessee’s prized possessions, located at the Falling Water River. The many terrace-like platforms make the dropping water look like a smooth white powder flowing in those streams. The calmness that it offers makes it a perfect spot for family picnics and fishing. But to cover the beauty of it, you should walk its trail on foot. The 1.5-mile Service Road Loop is the best way of getting it done.

5. RAINBOW HALL

Most visitors comment that any trip to Tennessee is incomplete without enjoying the sights of its beautiful rainbow hall. It’s a place in Rock City that lets you see what Chattanooga would be like if someone colored the air. It has windows covered in a colored gel that makes witnessing Tennessee’s stunning beauty like this possible. Tourists can find themselves lost and mesmerized by the scenery it creates for them. That explains the reason behind its popularity.

6. HURRICANE MILLS

This place is home to the ranch of Loretta Lynn, an American singer/songwriter that has become Tennessee’s most popular attraction. Hurricane Mills’ beauty aside, this place welcomes its visitors to several concerts and motocross races in the area. The lady’s Coal Miner’s Daughter Museum is also one of the main attractions here. But, if you have the taste and the heart to go for it, then Hurricane Mills also has a famous haunted house in it. That shows the variety of activities you can enjoy while there.

7. CUMBERLAND CAVERNS

Another fascinating place in Tennessee to catch your attention is the Cumberland Caverns. These caves stretch over 30 miles, and people can have different experiences besides just enjoying this as a tourist location. You can go for spelunking or even a themed wedding party by collaborating with the company that manages these caves. But if not, you can always sign up for commercial tours to keep up around the year. That should let you enjoy this adventure.

8. LOVER’S LEAP

The cherry on top of all other places is the Lover’s Leap in Tennessee; this attraction in Rock City lets you catch a glimpse of seven different states from its peak. The brave enough visitors to cross the swing-a-long bridge can sight the best view on a clear day. Few of those seven include Georgia, North Carolina, and Alabama. Besides that, there’s a romantic history associated with the place that adds to its fame.

SUMMARY

These were the eight most amazing places to visit in Tennessee if you are planning a trip. Make sure to pack keeping your destinations in mind and cover as much ground as possible. It’d be hard to find the time to visit it frequently, so remember to make the most of your time there.
