If only these mountains of Great Smoky Mountains National Park could speak, the tales this majestic mountain range situated deep within the Appalachian Mountains could tell. This park covers a range of 500,000 acres of forest land situated in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee. The park is beautiful any season of the year with its majestic peaks, rushing rivers, floral and fauna, huge boulders, and cascades of rhododendron and mountain laurel during spring and early summer.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park beauty is displayed in many ways!
Inside the national park, you will see awesome waterfalls, cool mountain rivers, wildflowers, floral and fauna, and the glory of Fall as tree leaves change to brilliant colors of red, orange, and gold. Autumn's pageantry of colors usually peaks in mid-October.
In late spring and early summer, park visitors can take in magnificent beauty of gigantic cascades of mountain laurel and rhododendron. Some 800 miles of trails thread the whole of the Smoky Mountains natural fabric - and its waterfalls, coves, balds, and rushing streams.
Picnic grounds offer a respite retreat with their location next to peaceful streams. Fishing is now permitted in all streams, so bring your rod and reel.
Whatever your pleasure, Great Smoky Mountains National Park offers a respite getaway from everyday life.
