There are over 2900 miles of rivers and creeks in the Smoky Mountains.   The first thing most folks think of are the mountains, but what would the Smokies be without the streams and waterfalls?   There are lots of ways to enjoy the water in the park.

.

There are more than 100 prominent waterfalls and cascades within the park boundaries.   Many are only a short hike away.   Our own agent  Keith Garnes is an expert on waterfalls if you would like to know how to get to any of them.

You can fish for trout all year in the Smokies.    The park offers a wide variety of angling experiences from remote, headwater trout streams to large, cool water smallmouth bass streams. Most streams remain at or near their carrying capacity of fish and offer a great opportunity to catch these species throughout the year.
