Off the Grid - Women Leadership Hike
2026-05-08 - 2026-05-09 | Carson Springs Baptist Conference Center, 1120 Carson Springs Rd., Newport, TN, United States
Experience a two-day hike in the Great Smoky Mountains. You will spend one night at Carson Springs Baptist Conference Center and two meals and lunch Saturday.
The Andrews Bald hike is a 3.6-mile roundtrip, moderate-difficulty trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park that starts at the Clingmans Dome parking lot. Hikers descend for the first 1.8 miles through a spruce-fir forest, making the return trip uphill. The trail ends at a high-elevation grassy bald with scenic mountain views, and is known for its wildflowers, especially azaleas in the summer.
Middle Prong Trail is the best waterfall hike in the Smokies. The trail passes three major waterfalls, in addition to numerous smaller falls, cataracts and cascades. The trail begins at Lynn Camp Prong and the Thunderhead Prong, at the point where the Middle Prong of the Little River officially begins. From the trailhead hikers will cross a metal footbridge over Lynn Camp Prong. Over the course of the first couple of miles you should keep an eye out for violets, crested dwarf iris, wood sorrel, rue anemone, foamflower, toothwort and trilliums, if you’re hiking in the spring and early summer months.
At four-tenths of a mile from the trailhead hikers will reach the Lower Lynn Camp Falls. This 35-foot, multi-tiered waterfall is one of the more impressive falls in the park, especially during the wetter months of the year. Indian Flats Falls, will be your final destination on this hike.
During this trip you will experience 2 days of beautiful scenery, no cell phones and good fellowship with mission and ministry-minded women. For more information contact Kim Cruse @ kcruse@tnbaptist.org
