Smalls and I went exploring on one of our kid free weekends and ended up in Tennessee. We went to Fall Creek Falls on Saturday and camped at the campground there. The next morning we were trying to decide where to hike before heading home and stopped at Sam’s Corner in Coalmont, TN to get some breakfast. The food was good and the store was fun and nostalgic. Apparently they are known for their BBQ but we didn’t get any this day. The owner gave us the history of the store and the area. He recommended that we go to the Great Stone Door.
Without any knowledge of the trail, we were delighted at the gorgeous views and amazing rock formations. The Great Stone Door trail is a 1.8 mi out and back trail. It is paved until you reach the first overlook. The trail is fairly easy until you reach the narrow stone steps.
We highly recommend going out to hike the Great Stone Door and hope to return for a backpacking trip and more mileage for exploration.
