Another hidden gem in the Smokies is the troll bridge at Elkmont. About 100 feet up Little River Trail to the right there is a small gravel path that leads off the trail. Continue down it a little ways and you will see the troll bridge, part of the Elkmont resort community that used to be in the area in the 20s. The houses in this area have been torn down (further down the road one of the cabin areas remains as a semi-ruin for exploring), but some of the chimneys and the troll bridge remain.
Covered in moss, this is one of the most quaintly picturesque places in the park and well worth some poking around to find it.
