So many things to do at Dollywood! You could spend multiple days here and still not do it all. Favorite rides were The Tennessee Twister, Thunderhead, and Daredevil Falls.

This mountain amusement area takes advantage of the scenery (unlike some of the Parkway options that are strictly indoors). Race your friends in a dual zip-line ride or climb in the tree canopy walk. Your adventure starts with a scenic 12-minute ride from Downtown Gatlinburg to the summit of Anakeesta mountain on the Chondola’s quad chairlift.

Step into the historic setting of the Old Mill Restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner (or all three!) and sample Southern classics like hot biscuits, local sausage, country fried steak, chicken and dumplings and chicken pot pie. For dessert, their homemade pecan pie is a little slice of heaven.

If you’re in the mood for some award-winning Tennessee BBQ, look no further than Calhoun’s. Try their award-winning chicken, ribs and smoked BBQ, plus scratch made sides like baked cinnamon apples and creamy country slaw. If BBQ isn’t your thing, try the fried pickles, wings or burgers.

Get a can of goat chow and hop on the special "goat-cycle," which lets you transport your can of goat feed up to the roof. Then watch the hungry rooftop residents chow down on their favorite snack. Other activities include mining for gems, some major souvenir shopping and getting a taste of some home made fudge and ice-cream.

If a classic game of skee-ball or Whack-a-mole gets your endorphins going, this is the place to play. Located right off the Parkway, you can compete against yourself or your friends and family at all the classics. It’s perfect for when the weather won't let you explore the nearby mountains, but be forewarned, this is a place for people who like the squealing laughter of kids.

Windy roads

Be prepared for some windy roads when you get off the main parkway - they can get pretty steep as well!
