Mt. Leconte Via Rainbow Falls and the Bullhead Trail - Great Smoky Mountains

[@melissag1106]

We did Bullhead Trail to the Pulpit today and it was sooo incredibly beautiful up there at the Pulpit….gorgeous vistas on both sides!! But ugh it was HOTTT! I wasn’t quite prepared for the steady grade up up up and as too remarked, much if it is in the hot sun. Beautiful hike but exhausting!

I wish you had shown more of the trail because I wanted to see how rocky it is. Going to do same ina few days. Thank you.

Stunning views. I've been to Le Conte twice. Once via Alum Cave trail and once via Boulevard trail. I'll be trying the rainbow/bullhead loop tomorrow, I've heard Bullhead trail is a bit overgrown and tough to see the trail at spots

Nice video. Long hike!

That is the best Beef Jerky in the world!!! The bbq one is incredible too. Those views are awesome. Really cool video Adam.

So, If I park in the rainbow falls parking lot & start off on the Rainbow Trail & then take the Bullhead trail the rest of the way to Mount LeCont - Will I miss anything real nice by not just taking the Bullhead Trail up from the very start. I’m wanting to see the waterfall, but yet take the Bullhead Trail up, cause it’s got such rare nice views.

I’ve still got to do my leconte one day. I’ll eventually get there.

Glad you got to see the views! Great job with the video. I am going to hit Mt. Leconte soon!

My fiance & I hiked up to LeConte via Alum Cave June 2019 for our first hike ever. It definitely kicked our ass but we loved it sooo much so we're planning to go back to the Smokys this June & looking to hike this exact loop. Great video 👍

Nice. That trail is on my list for next time I’m down there.

[@UnknownSpirit222]

Do you park in rainbow falls parking lot - hike rainbow falls trail, then hike the bullhead trail - To Mount LeCont? I’m coming up to do it, but confused on what to do.

[@jethrobodine4638]

i have hiked many trails in the Smokies. i have yet to go all the way to Mt.Leconte, what way do you recommend? i have been to Alum Cave and to Rainbow Falls. what is closest to Leconte and which one has less hazardous drop offs as i am taking a friend that is not a fan of heights with ledges LOL

[@BrianWest58]

Was there much activity around the cabins?

[@adrianvega5138]

Just completed this loop. Didn’t get clear skies but was great. What was you time on the loop?

[@lucashatley3209]

What was the music used in the first half of the video?

[@macduder2178]

How long did it take you to complete the hiking trail? I'm looking to go in the next few weeks and I was curious for a rough estimate of what I may be in for.

[@paulinakocemba3978]

Great video! Im heading to Tennessee in the next couple of weeks. I was wondering how long did this whole trail take in total? Also, is it possible to take this trail up to the top of Mt Le conte and then head back an easier trail since u mentioned the bull head was rough. What are your recommendations? Thanks!!

Trillium Gap has always been a favorite for taking new people up, especially if they aren't strong hikers.
