If you know of a trail under 4 miles with lots of rhododendron leave a comment below!

"Rhododendron Trail" in Greenbrier off 321 in Gatlinburg. Travel about one mile past the Ranger's Station and as soon as you cross over a bridge the parking is immediately on the right. The trail starts directly in front of the parking area. This is not a maintained trail but is used often. I would term it as "Moderate". There are a number of very nice waterfalls in addition to all the Rhododendrons to see. I know you all will enjoy this. Blessings!

We did this trail yesterday and it was beautiful, lots of poison ivy, long pants are suggested! Lots of rhododendron blooms down the main road at the Ramsey Cascades trailhead too. Easy for those that don't hike to see.

Also in Greenbrier is the old settlers trail head. Section from g brier to campsite 33 has much. Or even shorter to side trail at Wa Floy/Stiener Bell. (Google it)
The aforementioned Rhododenren Creek Man Way termnates into Grapeyard Ridge trail. But best trail of all w a round trip total of 4 miles is the Injun Creek Manway that is just to left of ranger station in greenbrier. It also ties into Grapeyard trail. Turn around at campsite 32 and hike back down. Ez walking. Min. Elev gain. 5 foot bridges before campground 32.
