North Alabama Waterfall Trail(0 review) Waterfalls Thanks to the flowing waters of the Tennessee River, North Alabama boasts the most beautiful waterfalls on either side of the Appalachians. Alabama is known as the Land of a Thousand Waterfalls, and North Alabama is blessed to be home to many of those. These stunning falls are surrounded by nature to hike, spots to photograph, and, in some cases, wineries to relax. Our waterfalls are close enough to each other that you can visit several in a day and experience them all in a long weekend.See more..
