2025 Gatlinburg Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#2023travelwish Take me back to the Smokey Mountains!!! quick flight and beautiful cabins at here are so many beautiful areas to visit in the Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge area. I highly recommend visiting any time of the year for an incredible, memorable experience. Be sure to book event tickets early as the sell out fast. But there are plenty of things to do just walking around town or exploring the miles of trails.

Explore American History from a different perspective. Five unique galleries burrow deep into the studies of criminal intent, criminal profiles, the penal system, victims, crime prevention, forensic science, law enforcement and the Judiciary Branch of government. Absolutely! Some exhibits that kids can enjoy are the Jail Cell Escape, Prohibition Gallery, Modern Police Shooting Range, Heist Laser Maze, Numerous Photo Ops and Top Detective Challenge. it’s a must place to visit, Knoxville Tennessee is 30 minutes a away, if you like mountains, cabins , you will love this place , and it’s not that pricey

This store has a lot of yummy candy to choose from. It’s located on the main street in Gatlinburg and close to where we were staying, just opposite to Ripleys believe it or not. There were many varieties to choose from. From cast to gums to Chocolate cakes. It was fun to choose from the number of options available in the shop. There are many varieties for kids and also adults will enjoy the candies here. Really nice if you have kids, they will enjoy it. Store is colorful and have many soft toys which makes store very cute. #candies #colorful #sweets #gatlinburg #smokiemountain #national #usa #travel #shopping

This place was so much fun, there were many games, Races and play to select from from single to group play. There are games for every one from kids to adults, groups single. Place was very colorful and for kids they can spend hours without getting bored. There is also a pizza place inside where you can eat and play again if fee hungry 😋. Prizes are amazing and a must visit if you are visiting with kids. You can use your coupons for buying pizza and discount on Pizzas. I will definitely go again and you will love it if you are fan of arcade. #arcade #kids #kidsactivities #gatlingburg #arcadia #smokymountain #games

Country Inn Hotel in Gatlinburg is nice and clean hotel. It’s location is perfect just 3-4 min walk from the Main Street and Gatlinburg Space Needle. Hotel is clean, rooms are spacious and sone the rooms have balcony. Out room had half balcony, it’s was narrow so chairs were not there and can’t sit, it’s depends on first come first service who gets room with balcony. So you can ask during check in that you need room where you can sit in balcony. Parking is available in hotel and sometimes it gets full so they have additional parking 2-3 min walk away (next street). Breakfast was normal, eggs, bread and fruits. Coffee was available 24/7. Over all a good hotel, near to many attractions and very conveniently located. #hotel #hotelstay #gatlinburg

Country Roads, Take Me Home Birthplace of the Queen of country music Miss Dolly Parton, this trip to the Smokie Mountains was an absolute dream come true. Not only am I a fan of Dolly and country music. But I am also a lover of the outdoors and hiking for which the Smokies have a lot of great trails to pick from. The most famous trail through this area is the small portion of the Appalachian Trail that crosses through the mountains. I didn't know a lot about it before visiting the Smokies expect that it was the longest continuous trail in the USA and I had always been intrigued by the name. I still can't say I know very much about the history of the trail but like so many pioneers that traversed the numerous trails across North America the ones following the Appalachian Trail faced many dangers and extremes. It is mind-blowing what they had to endure. Today there are all kinds of walking trails and we took a few of the easier ones on this trip. Bet every single one was enjoyable. There is a lot to see and do in the towns surrounding this area. We loved The Island at Pigeon Forge and the Old Mill. The town of Gatlinburg is fantastic as well. Some kitschy little shops and great dining options. We also stumbled upon a Salt and Pepper Shaker museum which was another highlight of this trip. And of course no trip to the Smokies is complete without a stop at Dollywood. #gooutside

#falltrip Had an amazing fall trip in Tennesse this past week. Getting There - if you like to drive I would definitely suggest you to drive here there are some sweet roads and back streets that they will really make you enjoy the smocks Mountain Views Attractions - there are many! If you’re up to have a dinner show, this city definitely offers some fun things to do! I really enjoyed the open mountain coaster! Hotels - I stayed both at the hotel and Airbnb. I will suggest you to get a cabin with a fire pit, so you can enjoy the cold weather while making some s’mores. Food & Restaurants - honestly, this place is lacking of good food. I have tried different spot, the best one personally was the Local Goat! Shopping - Amish popcorn is a must! One of the most beautiful places to go personally is in the mountain, you should definitely dedicate some time while there to go hiking. Start with an easy trail and go for it:) perfect time to go is during October since weather is better and also is the pumpkin season

The gorgeous and breathtaking Gatlinburg Tennessee during the winter time, when you get through all the touristy things and stores. you get to marvel and be in aww of how truly beautiful the world is when we don't trash it with hundreds of gift shops#snow

This is the view from my balcony in Gatlinburg. The sound of the babbling brook is perfect to promote relaxation.
