The Gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains
Explore hidden gems such as Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail and Laurel Falls. Step out of the city life by going to Roaring Fork and Newfound Gap Road. Get out of town with these interesting Gatlinburg side-trips: Forbidden Caverns (in Sevierville), Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Cades Cove & Abrams Falls Trail) and River Rafting & Tubing (in Hartford).

Tennessee travel guide
The Volunteer State
Divided by law, geography, and custom into three major regions, represented by the three stars on state's flag, Tennessee boasts a distinctive musical heritage that includes elements of bluegrass, country-western, and blues. With a countryside as diverse as its people, Tennessee includes landscapes ranging from a mountainous region in the east to the lowlands of the west, with gently rolling hills in the middle. For a well-rounded vacation, you can hike remote mountain trails in the morning and explore the crowded bars of Nashville in the evening. Visit the urban attractions, such as Elvis Presley's former residence in Memphis, but don't miss a chance to spend some time in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, situated in the eastern part of the state.
