Cades Cove offers scenic areas to host a picnic, play a game of cornhole or explore. Cades Cove also has historical landmarks nearby including churches and cabins, along with wildlife all over.
2. A Hike in the Mountains
What better way to experience the Great Smoky Mountains than hiking the trails? The Smokies have lots of trails to choose from; the hardest part will be deciding! If you’re bringing the whole family, plan accordingly. Plan out your hike and hit the trails early! During the summer months, it can be crowded and very hot. The earlier you arrive at the trails the better! Research hikes prior to your arrival and enjoy the great outdoors as a family!
