Flexible Itineraries: Unique and adventure-packed ideas ranging from one day in the park to a week-long trip
The Best Hikes in the Great Smokies: Detailed hike descriptions with mileage, duration, elevation gains, and difficulty ratings, plus individual trail maps and options for backpackers
Experience the Outdoors: Cruise along Newfound Gap Road for epic views from scenic overlooks and watch “smoky” mists rise up through the valleys. Spot local wildlife like 700-pound elk, black bears, and vast herds of white-tailed deer. Savor the refreshing solitude of a night camping under the stars or enjoy a twinkling light show from Elkmont’s synchronous fireflies. Trek a segment of the Appalachian Trail, wander through remnants of the region’s historic settlements, or try your hand at fly-fishing
Take a Break: Unwind after a day of adventure at one of the trendy craft breweries that earned Asheville the title of “Beer City USA.” Head to Dollywood for square-dancing, catching a show, or gliding down the lazy river at Splash Country. Soak in the sweet sounds of Tennessee’s backwoods music scene, sample some fiery moonshine, or shop for crafty Appalachian folk art
