This was our first trip out to Cloudland Canyon, and it definitely won't be our last!

We were here on a cooler January afternoon, so the crowds weren't bad. But we could definitely see this place being much more busy during the warmer months.

We walked the Outlook Loop, as well as part of the Waterfall Trail, down to Chreokee Falls.

The Outlook loop is an easy walk that is paved throughout most of the trail. The Waterfall Trail was moderate difficulty, with the main challenge being the large number of stairs (200 to Cherokee Falls and 600 to Hemlock Falls). But the views of the falls are definitely worth it!

We'd definitely like to come back and check out some of the other trails offered, or possibly even spend a weekend camping.
