Experiences

Stuff to do you cannot find anywhere but here.
This isn’t just a 5 second zip between a couple of trees. It’s a two hour guided canopy tour led by the people who first invented this practice for NatGeo and BBC documentary crews in the tropical rainforests. They know what they’re doing. And they’ve never had an accident, which I cannot say for anyone else. Book early during peak seasons.

Step back into time to see how the pioneers lived in East Tennessee. Cades Cove offers the best chance to see wildlife, especially during the morning/evening hours of Spring time.

Eats, Treats and Diet Disrupters. What’s Good (and Not!)

The good, the bad and the ugly!
Great burgers, fries and deli but ironically, TERRIBLE pizza. If you’re beat from a long day on the road, this is only a few miles away.

Hikes and Trails

Always check the nps website for updates on closures and bear activity. I know it’s tempting to go when you see the bear activity warning, but it’s the WRONG kind of activity you wanna be around.
A paved hike for the not-so-experiences trekker.

Regardless of the trailhead you use to access the LeConte Trail, the payoff for reaching this peak is most definitely worth it. Be warned, this hike is not for the beginner!

Especially good during early Spring or late fall for experienced hikers with appropriate footwear due to gorgeous ice formations in the rock face. It’s a good hike year round, but I’m a fan of the ice.
