Cool Cities to Visit in Tennessee
In Tennessee there are so many great places to visit in this fun state. While we are kind of partial to our fave, Chattanooga, we are also sharing a few places to visit in Maryville and the surrounding areas of Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Sevierville, Alcoa, Knoxville and Greenback. We hope that you enjoy this Cool Cities to Visit in Tennessee post.
Maryville
Lakes and rivers are in abundance such as; Douglas, Chilhowie, Tellico, and Fort Loudon for those who swim, fish, ski, or just like to drift down the Little River in an inner tube. Besides drifting down the river many areas for swimming are easily accessible. Many rope swings are hung over the river for the thrill seekers. Also If you are into the outdoors beautiful vistas can be seen in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Cades Cove and”the loop”are wonderful places to see wildlife and be together as a family. Trails in the park will lead you to discovery of the mystic views from mountain tops or riversides. Abram's Falls is one of the most beautiful trails one can go on.
Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg
Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg offer arcades, shows, and parks. A NASCAR themed park is one of the more popular attractions. The Dixie Stampede puts on a great show and a wonderful meal is served. Dolly Wood, and its sister park Splash Country, are fantastic places for family fun. DollyWood is the most popular theme park in the area and on occasion the residence of Dolly Parton herself. Shops offer many places for souvenir hunters to search for special gifts.
Knoxville
Knoxville offers many clubs for those who like to stay out late. Knoxville is also the home of the University of Tennessee and The Knoxville Zoo. The Zoo offers great family fun and hours of entertainment, much more that the zoo in Fort Wayne IN. Knoxville also offers many malls for those who love to shop.
Hunting, camping, and ATV enthusiasts will enjoy the Wildlife Management Area, Royal Blue, north of Knoxville towards the Kentucky border. It is a great place to hangout with friends and ride the many trail through the woods and up the mountains, or make a family vacation and camp while you stay. Night riding is an adventure your children will remember for many years to come. Hunting is legal on the land but be advised please hunt on the west side of the interstate.
Bristol & East Tennessee
If you are up towards Royal Blue a trip to Bristol, Tennessee should come next. Bristol offers many races to fans of the sport and should be a stop for anyone who has a passion for motorsports. East Tennessee is a very beautiful area and should be visited by everyone at least once in a lifetime. The people are nice and the views are greater. For anyone there is something to do and have fun with.
No matter where you go in Tennessee, nature abounds and so do lots of amazing cities, fun activities and good food. These are a few cities we think you should consider checking out. We hope that you are inspired by this Cool Cities to Visit in Tennessee post. Happy travels.
