Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is located in the Appalachian Mountains in the North Carolina and Tennessee area. Although the park is the most visited national park in the United States with 9-10 million visitors a year, traffic is mostly limited to the larger streets. The 450 km of secondary roads and the 1,400 km of hiking trails in the park are not very frequented. The forest covering the park is one of the oldest forests in the world and is the habitat of a diverse flora and fauna. Access to the park is via the 750 km Blue Ridge Parkway that connects Shenandoah National Park with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

On a sunny and clear day, you should climb the Clingman Dome, from where you can look down for miles on the green hills of the Appalachian Mountains. To see wild animals such as black bears, deer and turkeys, you should visit the open areas of Cades Cove and Cataloochee. The most idyllic places in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park with waterfalls and beautiful nature are in the Deep Creek and Roaring Fork regions.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Great Smoky Mountains National Park, nature park in the Great Smoky Mountains between Tennessee and North Carolina in the southern Appalachians, USA; approx. 2000 km². The park was created in 1934 to preserve the species-rich deciduous forest that covers the entire area, including the highest point, Clingman's Dome (2020 m).
