Swan View Overlook

The first parking area we'll see will be on our right and it's for Fall Hollow - a small waterfall. We barely have to take 10 steps from our car to see it. Jackson Falls coming up later is more impressive, but Fall Hollow is still worth a quick stop.

Devils Backbone Road

Technically, Devil’s Backbone State Natural Area is a park adjacent to the Trace, not actually on it. But, hey that's just a detail. What's important is that it's a good place to take a pretty, moderate-effort hike through the woods without a lot of other people around. It's especially interesting for the diversity of plant life.

Jackson Falls

I want to tell you about Jackson Falls now so we have some time to think about if we want to make the stop to see it. Before we get to it, we will pass She Boss Place, have an option to stop and see a tobacco farm and do an Old Trace Walk. Following that are beautiful views from Bakers Bluff.

Water Valley Overlook

From here we get a roughly 180 degree view across the Water Valley. Its a example of pastoral Tennessee as we look across rolling hills of farms and ponds. The view is normally well maintained here, rarely obscured by brush or other growth. Interestingly, its a popular dark location for stargazing or there is some astronomical event taking place - like a meteor shower.
