Favorite easy hike!?

Will be visiting soon. Perhaps a little sad but i'm much more familiar with the longer/harder hikes.... However my wife will be a few weeks removed from surgery & doubt we do anything that is much more than a mile or so. We will probably be coming from the Cherokee side. We might stop at deep creek to walk straight back to see the easy waterfalls. We will be staying in Towsend.. Any other easy hikes I should look at?
