Top spots for family-friendly fun in Sevier County

Sevier County

Within Sevier County, Tennessee lies the popular cities of Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierville, as well of course as the Smoky Mountains National Park. The cities feature historic sites and landmarks as well as an expansive range of daytime activities and exciting nightlife. 

Pigeon Forge is a popular destination for those that want a taste of the simpler life. Take a stroll through town or hop on a trolley car to explore the miles of shopping, dining, and entertainment, including a variety of museums as well as outdoor activities. Of course, a stop in Pigeon Forget wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the Dollywood theme park.

Gatlinburg offers a culture and atmosphere of mountain heritage that is woven all throughout the city’s attractions, shops, and restaurants. Also featuring trolleys for a fun way to get around town, Gatlinburg is also designed for walkers, where you can stroll along or take a scenic stop at the Little Pigeon river. Perhaps the most unique feature of this town, though, is the Great Smoky Arts & Crafts Community, an eight mile stretch of artists and craftsman showcasing their homemade wares.

Sevierville is filled with family-friendly adventure at every turn, from go-karts and putt-putt to shopping, live shows and museums, and enough outdoor activities to fill up every day of your trip. Only a few minutes away from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the best way to see this city is through the outdoors. Horseback riding, rafting, canoeing, ATV riding, and fishing are just a few of the ways to enjoy the wilderness and take in fresh air and blue skies.
