Make the Most of Summer with a Trip to Gatlinburg

As summer starts to fade to fall the Smoky Mountains offer some last minute summer fun in the sun. Gatlinburg, the gateway to the Smoky Mountains, is brilliant in the fall, with its magnificent colors and cool weather, but summer is still a great time to visit as the weather is temperate and outdoor activities are abundant, with everything from Dollywood to White Water Rafting to NASCAR Speedpark racing available. Plus, with the Smoky Mountains so close, visitors can explore the beauty of America’s most visited national park, which is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.

For guests who would like to go to Dollywood, there are great Dollywood Vacation Packages available, including ones that combine Dollywood with Dixie Stampede and Dollywood’s Splash Country.

If the outdoors are what you’d like to explore, then perhaps Rafting with Smoky Mountain Outdoors or Rafting with Big Creek Expeditions are attractions that would float your boat. These outfitters provide guests with guides, rafts and a whole days worth of fun on the Pigeon River.

The Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, while not outdoors, features an array of nature’s sea creatures, giving guests an up close and personal look and life under the sea.
