Anytime is a good time to visit Gatlinburg
TN—each
season
has
its own special characteristics, but spring could
be the best. Envision the new bright
green foliage, the splash of bright colors found
in spring wildflowers, the water up in whitewater
streams, exuberantly happy waterfalls, and
wildlife emerging from winter dens. American
Black bears emerge from hibernation and whitetail
fawns spring forth. Gatlinburg TN locals prepare
for arrival of the year’s
new Tennessee travelers. Their desire to impress
the visitor is reflected by hundreds of fresh
flower arrangements along the main parkway and city
sidewalks.
Summer is also a favorite time because
the youth are out of
school
and it’s time for the traditional summer vacation
flora and fauna are at their
peak. The mountain temperatures are a bit cooler
and the pleasures of the Smoky Mountains await the
traveler. Moreover, summer and spring are favorite
times for a Smoky
Mountain wedding. Over
thirty wedding chapels wait to serve brides and grooms
planning their wedding day. Honeymoon
in a Gatlinburg
TN cabin.
Fall season brings the burst of color that attracts
visitors who appreciate Mother Nature's brilliant

colors that remain after cooler
temperatures remove
the leaves' chlorophyl. Nothing compares with the
Great Smoky Mountains National Park when it offers
the crisp, cool air of Fall in Cades Cove.
It's a pleasant surprise to some that winter is also
a great time to visit Gatlinburg, Tennessee and the
Great Smoky Mountains. Things are quieter and
more peaceful--the strident pace of summer is replaced
by a slower pace. Mountain vistas are improved
because the foliage is off the trees; the air is
both crisp and clean, and the smell of woodsmoke
carries you back to an earlier time.
