This Hike in North Carolina Leads to a Hidden, Emerald-green Swimming Hole — Here's How to Find It
"A short hike (1.5 miles each way) leads to this shimmering emerald pool, located in the Great Smoky Mountains. The pool is created by a river squeezed between two massive boulders, forming a 6-foot waterfall with a deep pool beneath it. The water is notably cold year-round, providing a refreshing dip after a hike." - Travel + Leisure Editors
