The Tale of the Fiery Gizzard

Fiery Gizzard Trail is less than two hours away from Nashville and is located in Sequatchie Tennessee. This trail is full of waterfalls and scenery. Although this area is extremely beautiful, I would say that it is not for beginners.

This hike took us about 5 ½ hours and about 12 miles. We stopped at one of the waterfalls for a while and two people in our party went for a dip. Sometimes I felt like a hobbit going on an adventure, at other times I was in a scene straight from Jurassic Park.

The trail is very well marked and has markers so if you have had an accident you would be able to tell dispatch where you are located. Bring plenty of water. I ran out of water about half way through and had to rely on my adventure buddy for some water.
