The "Big Tree" as everyone refers to it, is located in the Sipsey Wilderness Area of the Bankhead National Forest in North Alabama. It is the largest Poplar tree in Alabama and among the largest in the Southeastern United States. There are two beautiful waterfalls that empty near the tree into the canyon and East Bee Branch when you arrive. The scenery rewards you for your long hike in to see this massive tree. It takes almost a full day of daylight to hike in during the winter months and hike out.
