About an hours drive from Nashville you will find the hidden treasure of Rutledge Falls.
Rutledge Falls is located on private property between Manchester & Tullahoma, TN. The sign states it is open from dusk to dark and a few rules...no guns, booze, & other common sense stuff. There is a small parking area across from the church and the trail head is nearby. I am a newby hiker but I think this would be considered a "easy" trail for most although there is a bit of a rocky descent to the falls. From parking I was at the falls in 5 minutes. From the base of the falls I went down stream a bit and found several photo opportunities. The base of the falls is deep & cold. My time was cut short due to a small group of young adults who were loud, obnoxious, and drunk. I wanted to explore more but thought it best to return another day. All in all (except for the last 30 minutes) it was an enjoyable and beautiful place. I look forward to returning!
