Sill Branch Falls is a 3.3 mile heavily trafficked out and back trail located near Erwin, Tennessee that features a waterfall and is good for all skill levels. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
The first part of the hike has an easy incline, when the trail forks, stick to the left and you'll immediately cross a small stream. Continue on up this steep section of trail and you'll soon arrive at the falls.
Follow Clark’s Creek Road until you hit gravel. Then go about another 1.5 miles, pass the first parking area on the left, the trailhead is ahead on left with parking

January 11, 2021love this trail great for folks with small children.My 3 yr old nephew love it.
January 2, 2021The waterfall was spectacular.. recent rain definitely filled this fall out.. a word though.. the trail is not marked rhat great.. At the double blue blaze take a left.. cross small creek go up the recently installed steps.. this trail leads directly to the falls
January 2, 2021Great trail to falls. Muddy/slippery from large amounts of rain and snow melt.
January 2, 2021December 29, 2020This was nice. Took. 2 year old and two 10 year olds and it was great. Even eight he snow and cold. .6 miles from the parking lot
December 16, 2020December 13, 2020December 12, 2020Pretty falls, after small creek crossing go to the left.
November 30, 2020The falls are beautiful. There are plenty of people there but not overly crowded like some of the more popular trails. The hike is a steady up hill with a couple places of rough terrain. Worth the hike for sure.
November 28, 2020November 28, 2020October 24, 2020Very pretty. Lot's of horses riding up the service road on a Sunday. You can park at the entry of Cherokee National Forest or by car drive 1.5 miles to the trail head. The trail itself is not hard but for a steep incline and a stream (fairly easy). Very pretty falls. If you park in the lower lot you can get in a 5 mile hike (but most will be a service road) otherwise it's less than a mile to the falls (if you park at the trail head). I recommend hiking poles for the trail as it's rocky and wet with leaves in the fall.
October 18, 2020This hike never disappoints. Beautiful falls!!
October 17, 2020October 4, 2020October 2, 2020Easy trail for beginners. Moderate incline right before you get to the waterfall and it’s totally worth it!
October 2, 2020Beautiful trail. Rocky followed the creek. Lots of small cascades to photograph!
October 2, 2020Loved it! It was a popular trail
October 2, 2020It was beautiful! Climbed the cliff next to the waterfall and saw a small cave in the side of the cliff, but also met some unfriendly yellow jacket bees!
September 22, 2020Easy hike with 1 small ascent following the creek crossing. There is no need to follow the trail beyond the falls.....nothing there.
September 21, 2020Actually just a short, howbeit worthwhile, walk of only .6 miles (if you stay left and only go to the falls). Saw a sharp-shinned hawk at the falls. Lovely walk along this mountain stream!
September 19, 2020beautiful waterfalls
August 24, 2020Great falls and a short hike, but it is definitely not easy. If you're with smell children or nursing an injury, just know that it gets very steep for a little while, and a less steep but much more sustained for a longer distance.
August 21, 2020August 16, 2020Really pretty falls. Easy walk up a slight incline. Well worth the trip.
August 8, 2020Nice trail. Beautiful falls.
August 2, 2020After the creek crossing go left. A beautiful falls. I was very impressed with the whole hike and the falls. A must see!
