Den mest besøgte nationalpark i USA, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, dækker knap 2100 km2 fredet skov langs grænsen mellem North Carolina og Tennessee. Med sin centrale beliggenhed er Gatlinburg et godt udgangspunkt, når man vil udforske parkens flere hundrede vandrestier, dyrke riverrafting, fiskeri, ridning, se på vilde dyr eller deltage i de talrige øvrige udendørs udfordringer. Efter vandreturen i bjergene er det muligt at tage en elevator de godt 100 meter til toppen af Gatlinburg Space Needle, hvorfra der er en enestående udsigt over Smoky Mountains og det omkringliggende område. Børnene vil elske en tur i forlystelsescentret ved siden af Space Needle, som er fyldt med spændende forlystelser og spil. Et besøg i Ripley's Aquarium byder på yderligere sjov for hele familien. Her kan du blandt andet se en lagune fuld af hajer. Dollywood, som ligger i nærliggende Pigeon Forge, er et "must" for alle Dolly Parton-fan. Denne store forlystelsespark indeholder forlystelser og attraktioner, som er inspireret af den populære countrysangers kærlighed til musikken, Smoky Mountains og traditionel sydstatslig gæstfrihed.

This bustling riverfront town offers good old-fashioned Southern hospitality, old-world charm and a treasure trove of discoveries for Civil War buffs. To really get the feel of another era, stroll through the National Historic District, a 28-block stretch of restored Victorian homes, gardens and gazebos, and tour the house museums in Heritage Corner. Situated on the Chattahoochee River, Columbus offers a mixture of old and new with the lovely 12-mile Columbus Riverwalk, which includes the Chattahoochee Promenade, a walking tour of historical markers. A chief supplier for the Confederate Army, the town's Civil War history is on display in myriad museums and historic sites like Port Columbus Civil War Naval Center, which contains some of the Civil War's most important artifacts. But it's not all just war memorabilia: Columbus boasts a rich cultural side, with opera, symphony and a performing arts center. And for family fun, head to the Coca-Cola Space Museum for a simulated flight and a look at the first Coke machine used in outer space.
