Learn more about Gatlinburg

Suspended between mountain wilderness and tourist kitsch, this gateway to the Smokies offers a peculiar charm. The aerial tramway whisks you to Ober Gatlinburg for year-round activities including summer alpine slides and winter skiing. Along the Parkway, moonshine distilleries offer tastings with entertaining histories that may or may not be entirely factual. Ripley's Aquarium showcases creatures far from their natural habitat, while the Space Needle provides views that explain why these mountains earned the 'Smoky' moniker. For a break from the neon and fudge shops, Great Smoky Mountains National Park begins where the pancake houses end. The SkyPark and Anakeesta offer treetop perspectives without the hiking, perfect for those who want mountain views with minimal exertion.
