Gatlinburg, Tennessee
As the perfect entrance to Great Smoky Mountain National Park, this family-friendly small town is a classic family destination and one of the best small towns in the South.
It’s practically an outdoor playground that has so much to do, including fishing, hiking, whitewater rafting, and bird watching.
If your family is feeling adventurous and wishes to brave mountain heights, there’s the Gatlinburg SkyBridge, North America’s longest suspension pedestrian bridge.
And for those looking for astonishing views, the Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway offers a 2-mile ride up the mountain to the Ober Gatlinburg Ski Area and Amusement Park. The bottom line is that there’s something for everyone here!
