Roaring Fork Motor Trail

  I am linking up with Fiona's Green Day  and Gemma's  Scenic Weekend 

These are some archived shots from our visit to the Great Smoky National Park back in October. These shots were taken on our last full day at the park and during our ride on the Roaring Fork Motor Trail.


You can click on the photos for larger viewing


It was a little foggy during our early morning visit, I think it adds a little mystery to the scenes.


A very pretty green and lush part of the park.




There were various trails, were you can hike to the waterfalls. Another beautiful spot in the park.


The Great Smoky National Park is a beautiful place to visit and we enjoyed our visit. Thanks for stopping by to see my post.

Thanks for stopping by to see my post and thanks to Fiona for hosting Green Day  and to Gemma for hosting Scenic Weekends.  I wish everyone a safe and happy weekend.

    You have discovered some lovely trails. Looks like a good place for solitude and listening to the calmness of the water flows.

    The rich greens and falling water create such a beautiful atmosphere! But the extra magic comes with the touch of mist captured in the first photo!
