Attractions, Smokies &
Hotels across the Great Smoky Mountains

Pigeon Forge is the front porch of the Great Smoky Mountains β€” a five-mile Parkway of theme-park thrills, dinner shows, mountain coasters, and museums, with America's most-visited national park rising right behind it. Dollywood anchors everything: the warmest, most acclaimed theme park in the country, flanked by the Island's Ferris wheel, the Titanic's full-scale bow, and a corridor that runs through Gatlinburg's SkyBridge and Anakeesta straight into half a million acres of free, wild Smokies. Add Winterfest's millions of lights from November through February, and the corridor earns its crowds in every season.

Cades Cove

The Smokies' most beloved valley β€” an 11-mile loop through a mountain-ringed meadow of pioneer cabins, churches, and grist mill, with the park's best wildlife odds: black bears in the orchards, deer in the fog. Go at dawn.
