Who else is ready to escape the four walls of their homes and get outside and play? Raise your hands if you too are ready to shed the chains of self-quarantine and raise them even higher if your plans are for an upcoming trip to Gatlinburg when you do! Yes, we can see there are quite a few of you preparing for a journey to our hometown and a stay in one of our comfy cabins, and because we know you are ready to simply be outside, we’ve created this guide to the many Gatlinburg outdoor activities you can enjoy during your unforgettable Tennessee travels!

 

Thrilling Adventures

Whitewater Rafting is one of those adventures that sounds scarier than it really is, and when you visit the Gatlinburg area in the summer, you’ll understand exactly what we mean! Smoky Mountain Outdoors offers thrilling trips down the upper part of the Pigeon River with rapids that can reach Stage 3 or Stage 4. For those looking for a calmer undertaking, the lower part features calm waters and majestic scenery to enjoy!

 

CLIMBWORKS in Gatlinburg

Ziplining is one of the latest trends for fun, and CLIMBWORKS in Gatlinburg, located just across the street from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, features the thrills you’ve been seeking! From the side-by-side Mountaintop Zipline Tour where you and your partner can fly together to the Treetop Zipline Tour that keeps you flying for over two hours, the cost of these adventures start at $89 per person, but the thrill you will feel as you fly above some of the most beautiful landscape you’ve ever seen is absolutely worth every penny!

 

Closer to the Ground Ventures

Not everyone is a daredevil, and some of us prefer our adventures to be a little tamer and a lot closer to the ground, but that’s ok! For those who prefer to run mild instead of wild, a horseback tour of the Gatlinburg is an adventure everyone will want to try! Sugarlands Riding Stables, located at the Gatlinburg Entrance of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, is one of the first places you should visit. Offering individual trail rides and group rides that allow your entire family to participate (as long as they over 5 years of age and under 225 pounds), this quiet adventure will be one that you never want to end!
