Coker Creek Falls is a series of four major ledge waterfalls dropping from about 5 to 40 feet along Coker Creek in the Coker Creek Scenic Area of the Cherokee National Forest. The creekside trail is easy to follow but includes short, steep climbs over bluffs between the cascades.
At 40 ft, it stands above roughly 33% of the 775 documented falls in this guide.
The falls are fed by Coker Creek. You'll find it in Monroe, Tennessee. It is protected within Cherokee National Forest (USFS).
This is a short hike waterfall: reached by a short trail, generally under about a mile each way. A short walk gets you to the viewpoint, so it works for most casual visitors and families. The walk to the main viewpoint runs about 3.2 miles round trip. Base a visit out of Coker Creek, the closest town.
When to go: Spring (high flow). Like most waterfalls, Coker Creek Falls runs highest after snowmelt or heavy rain and can thin out in late summer, so it's worth checking recent streamflow and the land manager's conditions page before a long drive.
