The Great Smoky Mountains, and the towns of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg may be known for producing top quality country stars like Dolly Parton and the Gatlin Brothers, but the reason millions of people flock here every year is for the mountain views and the loads of family entertainment that abound. The breathtaking views make the Smoky Mountain National Forest one of the most popular national parks in the country, with over 10 million visitors each year.

Rising to a height of 6,500 feet, the hazy mountains offers 400 miles of roadway for driving tours, or 800 miles of hiking trails for self-guided tours.
