Find tons of activities just minutes away from your chalet or cabin, hotel or motel, bed and breakfast, or inn and lodge, along with some of the most scrumptious local eateries you could ever hope for! Stroll along the Riverwalk, and then enjoy a nightcap and nighttime city view at Ober Gatlinburg high atop Mt. Harrison.
For your first night in town, settle into your secluded chalet or hotel hideaway. Relax in a two-person hot tub or linger over a casual candlelight dinner; cuddle-up by the fireplace or stroll along the scenic Riverwalk.
Early morning risers can discover the magic of a sunrise high atop Clingman's Dome and watch Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains come to life for another wonderful day of romance and adventure. Explore the Parkway and discover its many attractions, shops and fine restaurants. Work up an appetite with a round of tennis at Mynatt Park. Or, you can stroll arm-in-arm, along the charming alleyways of The Village.
To bring your day of exploring to a spectacular close, the night lights of Gatlinburg are not to be missed. Board the 120-passenger Tramway ride to unsurpassed vistas high atop Mt. Harrison.
