Gatlinburg
Gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this modest Tennessee resort town sits at the park's edge along U.S. Route 441, with mountain terrain and scenic viewpoints on all sides. Despite its modest size, Gatlinburg has a dense concentration of cafés, restaurants, and visitor amenities, and the surrounding Smokies — part of a UNESCO World Heritage site in the wider region — draw visitors year-round.
