Smoky Mountain Hiking Trails: Mt. LeConte

Here are a few more pictures from our recent hike to the top of Mt. LeConte in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Be sure also to check out these sunset views from Mt. LeConte from the same hiking trip. Also see our guide to the many Trails to Mt. LeConte.

Here’s a good picture of Rainbow Falls on the trail to Mt. LeConte. It’s easier to see the scale of the waterfall with the people there. (check our other Rainbow Falls post also)

About Tony Perez

I'm a people person, and I enjoy the atmosphere that working with Cabins Of The Smoky Mountains entails, interacting with different types of people and trying to relate to each one uniquely. From Michigan originally, I've been coming to the Smoky Mountains since I was a child, with family in Wears Valley. Summer fun for me is exploring the Cades Cove area, swimming in the creeks, and hiking Mount LeConte and many other trails. I love the Smoky Mountains.
