One of the best things about Tanyard Creek Nature Trail is that it’s short and easy. It’s about 2 miles long and so easy just about anybody can hike it.

The forest is just lovely, and the little bridges that cross the creek look like something from your best dream, especially the suspension bridge.

You’ll also find Tanyard Creek Falls. Though it isn’t the highest waterfall in the Natural State, it certainly is absolutely lovely to look at.
