From rejuvenating spa retreats to scenic nature walks and culinary delights, this picturesque region offers a perfect blend of activities tailored just for you.
Join us as we explore five fun things that will make your trip to the Smokies an unforgettable journey of relaxation and rejuvenation.
1. Relaxing Spa Retreat:
The Chill Room at St. Somewhere Spa
Treat yourself to a day of relaxation and pampering at one of the luxurious spas in Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge.
Indulge in rejuvenating massages, soothing facials, and tranquil spa environments designed to help you unwind and recharge.
The St. Somewhere Spa at The Island is one of our favorites!
2. Scenic Drives and Nature Walks:
Take in the breathtaking beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park with a leisurely scenic drive along the Newfound Gap Road or a peaceful nature walk along the Gatlinburg Riverwalk.
Enjoy the fresh mountain air, lush landscapes, and serene surroundings. Check out Laurel Falls for an easy and beautiful hike.
3. Cultural Exploration:
Explore in the rich culture and history of the region by visiting historic sites such as Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the Gatlinburg Arts & Crafts Community showcasing local artisan crafts, or the Mountain Farm Museum at the Oconaluftee Visitor Center.
To continue the cultural experience, stop in a few of the numerous antique shops in the Smokies. Many shops offer local farm and estate antiques from the Smoky Mountain region. One of our favorites is the Green Olde Deal Antique Mall in Sevierville.
If you’re looking for something a little more hands-on, Brushes and Brew Painting Class in Pigeon Forge may be for you! They offer “painting classes where you can bring your friends, sit down in front of a canvas and learn a design,
all while sipping on beverages of your choice!” It’s sooooo much fun!
4. Fine Dining and Culinary Delights:
Indulge your taste buds with delicious Southern cuisine at charming restaurants and eateries in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, or nearby towns. From traditional BBQ and comfort food to gourmet dining experiences with mountain views, there’s something to satisfy every craving.
Moms will certainly enjoy a lovely lunch or dinner at The Old Mill Pottery House Cafe. The food is served on pottery pieces made on-site in The Old Mill Pigeon River Pottery store. While you’re there, take a stroll around their patio gardens to admire the gorgeous flowers.
5. Family-Friendly Fun:
If you’re traveling with your family, there are plenty of family-friendly attractions and activities to enjoy together. Visit Dollywood for thrilling rides, live entertainment, and Southern hospitality, or explore interactive museums like Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies for educational fun.
