Mingo Falls 

Mingo Falls is just outside the GSMNP in Cherokee in the Mingo Falls Campground. Info HERE

09/22/2004 - Visited Mingo and others in the southeast portion of the GSMNP. Trails to the top were more than others in the party wanted to tackle, maybe next time (there's another 20' fall up there).

09/29/2005 - Stopped by on the way back from Balsam Mtn Road. (last pic page 1)

From the parking area you immediately start up 159 steps. Yes there's a bench to rest on at the top
