First Things First!

Explore the Great Outdoors!

Of course, you can’t make a trip to Gatlinburg without exploring its biggest attraction: Smoky Mountain National Park. The park offers plenty of family-friendly trails in all skill levels so even the tiniest tots can explore by foot. There are also bike trails and a variety of fresh water streams for fishing. If the kids are big enough you might even enjoy a zip line tour with the whole crew. Either way, getting out to enjoy the fresh mountain air is a win-win for everyone!

 

Educational Experiences are Fun Too

Luckily, many of the Gatlinburg cabins are also located close to the downtown center where you will find many popular museums and interactive exhibits. The Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum has an eclectic mix of unique collectibles and learning capsules. Similarly, outdoor exhibits like the historical collection of buildings at Cades Cove also make for a fun day trip. Either way, an educational tour is a great option for families with kids.
