A great place to dine for a four course fondue meal, but also a great dessert spot if you just have a sweet tooth! We often go for just the chocolate fondue!

This is the highest peak in the Great Smoky Mountains. It's a bit of a drive to get to it, but the path leading up to the lookout tower is paved (also steep). The views can be amazing from Clingman's Dome, but take a jacket or coat with you! The temperatures can often be 10-20 degrees cooler there than in Gatlinburg.

We recently visited Anakeesta and loved it! You ride a chair lift to the top of a mountain where you'll find neat shopping, restaurants, food trucks, a mountain roller coaster, zip lining, a treehouse, a tree canopy bridge and a beautiful flower garden. The views of Gatlinburg from Anakeesta are amazing, but if heights aren't your thing, you might want to check it out before purchasing your tickets!
