Small in size but big on fun, Gatlinburg, Tennessee brims with adventures both wild and wonderful. One of the main reasons why Gatlinburg is so popular is it serves as one of the gateways to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, located right in downtown Gatlinburg. From there you can venture out onto miles of trails for biking, hiking, horseback riding, and perhaps even spot black bears, deer, elk, and other phenomenal wildlife. The adventures don’t stop when you venture back into town. Bring some friends along to taste authentic Appalachian fare. Ride the aerial tramway at Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park for gorgeous Smoky Mountain views. Take the glass elevator to the top of the Gatlinburg Space Needle. Or, bring the kids to Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies and Sweet Fanny Adams Theatre. Apres-adventure, cue the cozy with a soak in a hot tub at your Gatlinburg chalet rental, relax by the fire at a pet-friendly cabin, or settle into a luxury condo.
