Missy's Guidebook to Gatlinburg
Sightseeing
Spectacular views but so much more! You can eat, shop, zip line & spend the day! Live entertainment! I loved taking my 73 year old mom to the new observation tower! It was fun to watch her exploring like a child as we made our way up in the chairlift, stopped for an adult beverage at the top, took in the swinging bridges & climbed to the pinnacle tower with gorgeous mountain view’s!

A treasure hidden adjacent to the City of Gatlinburg! Hiking trails, historic structures & beautiful views of the Great Smoky Mountains! Our favorite local thing to do when the trails are packed, is to grab a picnic & a lawn chair & watch the sun go down off one of the scenic pull offs!

This little coffee shop is at the blinking caution light in the Glades. It’s run by 3 young students. Although the hours are limited (Friday, Saturday, & Sunday only), it’s great to see local students making a run at small business!! It IS my FAVORITE place for a cafe mocha! They have light sandwiches & desserts as well!
