The following blog post was sent to us by a couple that recently visited Wears Valley for a rainy afternoon and took a drive through part of the new Foothills Parkway addition that connects Wears Valley to Townsend through the new extension. They wanted to tell us about their visit and showcase some pictures and video they took: “Hello! We recently had the opportunity to take a little afternoon drive through Wears Valley as my husband and I hadn’t been…

Just for some viewing pleasure, we had recently licensed a new set of nature and location photos at Roaring Fork in Gatlinburg. This, as you will see, is a really beautiful and popular location to see views of the National Park, historic cabins and some wildlife and they were shot and brought to life by local photographer extraordinaire John Saunders. More on John Saunders can be found at https://www.pigeonforgechamber.com/listing/john-saunders-productions/.

The Smoky Mountains are some of the most gorgeous mountains you’ll find on this planet, which means they are some of the most gorgeous mountains you’ll find in the known universe, and you’d be doing yourself a disservice by coming all the way out here and not get where you can see the sights from the heights.

With the month of September in decline, you know what’s coming up next – the absolute peak of the Autumn season and the Autumn colors. For such an extensive mountain range we have here in Sevier County and the enormous National Park, it’s no surprise that we get thousands and thousands and thousands of people come here from all over the country and world just to see the red, orange, yellow, green, purple and brown trees up close and in…

No question about it, this is another rain and storm-filled Summer in the Smokies. We tend to have a 50% chance of our hottest season being enough to channel multiple days of thunder showing up on a weekly forecast and this appears to be the case for this Summer (which not as many locals might complain of since it’d been quite a long time since we had thunder and rain forecasts on the weather stations). So whether or not it…

One big claim to fame that we had in the Smokies during, and definitely after, the Smoky Mountain holiday Winterfest was that we had the only place in East Tennessee to enjoy snow sports no matter what the weather was like outside at Ober Gatlinburg, but all that is changing with the advent of a pretty daring new attraction in Pigeon Forge – the aptly named “Pigeon Forge Snow” on Teaster Lane. To put it in a nutshell, Pigeon Forge…

One last month for Spring 2018, so the latter end of this month will make it worth the trip with two favorite special events going on at the same time. The first one coming up is the Wilderness Wildlife Week going on from May 8th to the 12th. This event used to be held in January for over a generation was held in January, but that changed when the LeConte Conference Center in downtown Pigeon Forge was built. Other than…
