Discover the Wonders of the North Carolina Smoky Mountains


Welcome to the North Carolina Smoky Mountains! Experience the stunning beauty of winter from atop the highest peaks east of the Mississippi River.

These mountains are famous for their unforgettable outdoor adventures, and if you’re bundled up, with a cup of hot chocolate, see the mountains transform into a beautiful show. Think crisp mountain air, breathtaking panoramic views, and waterfalls (sometimes frozen) cascading through forests and long-range views. Everything feels magical and alive with seasonal wonder.

Discover the best spots to hike among for views like no other and explore the mountain towns decorated for the season. Learn about upcoming holiday and winter events that will delight the whole family. Shop by day and a stargaze by night. Set out on a less-crowded scenic drive along the Cherohala Skyway or the Blue Ridge Parkway. Bring the camera and be ready for the most beautiful winter scenery on the East Coast.

Keep an eye out for elk grazing in the serene beauty of their native habitat. Take a train ride for the sites only found along an American Heritage Railway. Try your hand at fishing in some of the best trout and bass water in all of the U.S. 

The Smokies are part of the ancient Appalachian Mountains, some of the oldest in the world. Discover the area’s rich cultural heritage at local museums and heritage sites. Delight in locally-sourced seasonal fare and shop for unique art pieces and handmade crafts.

Looking for a comfortable retreat after a day filled with adventure? The Smoky Mountains offer a variety of accommodations to suit every style, from charming cabins and rustic lodges to luxurious resorts and spas.

Start planning your perfect Smokies vacation and see for yourself the beauty these mountains hold.
