Noland Creek is a medium sized trout waterway (mostly rainbows - some brown and brook trout) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It starts just below Clingmans Dome and Andrews Bald at nearly 5000 feet and flows into Fontana Lake at 1750 feet. This creek like most in the Southern Appalachians is lined with abundant rosebay rhododendron which bloom in June-July.
