Lover's leap
According to folklore, a young brave names Sautee fell deeply in love with Nacoochee, a beautiful Cherokee maiden.
Nacoochee loved Sautee as well, but their tribes were engaged in a bitter feud.
The two finally ran off together, but Sautee was soon captured and thrown from the tip of Lover’s Leap.
The despairing Nacoochee quickly followed her lover, leaping to her own death far below.
