4 days in Bryson City Itinerary

The location of an old Cherokee village, Bryson City embraces a quiet side of the Great Smoky Mountains.

You've now added Nantahala Gorge Ruby Mine to your itinerary. Attractions like Clingmans Dome and Newfound Gap Road make great kid-friendly stops. Explore Bryson City's surroundings by going to Anna Ruby Falls (in Helen) and Blue Ridge (Humble Pie Boutique & Mercier Orchards). There's still lots to do: take a tour by water with Boat Tours & Water Sports, go for a walk through Three Waterfalls Hike, head outdoors with Nantahala on the Fly, and stroll through Goldmine Loop Trail.
