A Brief pull over to check out the view. Was busy at 3pm on a Tuesday but able to get a parking spot. You don't have to pay for theme park tickets for the best Gatlinburg city view!

Nice view of Gatlinburg and the surrounding Smokey Mountain area. An overlook section located right off the road, which makes access fairly easy (i.e., no hiking paths). The number of parking spaces is limited, so it may be difficult to actually find a spot if busy. We actually had to stop by on our return trip because so many people were already there during our first pass.
Free to the public, and fairly well-maintained. Some trash/litter around from other visitors, though.

The overlook on the by-pass offers an above-the-town look at Gatlinburg. In recent years many of the trees have gotten taller and are obscuring some of the views.

This is a must do for pictures! Stop the car and enjoy the view. It is the cheapest thing you will find in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.

Nice view of old Gatlinburg and surrounding mountains. Easy to access for travelers who can’t do hikes (littles, elderly, disabled) for a quick photo or stop on a nice day. Free.
BUT it’s crowded, smelled bad (maybe a tourist stopped and couldn’t hold back their bathroom urges? I’m trying to be polite but as a mom of toddlers, I’m gonna be frank - during our stop it legit smelled like human poop though nothing causing the stink was visible). So, I guess it goes without saying no bathrooms here.
Parking was fine when we went, but is limited. The National Park signs and fence are in serious disrepair. You’d think they’d keep it nicer since it sees so much traffic.
It’s worth the stop if you are already passing it and there is parking, OR if you have those in your party that need a low to no walk view. Otherwise, we saw similar, and better views of the mountains on our own, throughout Sevierville, Gay, and PF - so skip it!
and seems to be frequently serviced and safe. It’s less kitchy and county-fair quality than I expected - impressed overall and would def go again. We look forward to a night ride some day!
I always read Trip Advisor reviews so I’m trying to do better about leaving reviews as well. Please like this post it helped you!

Definitely want to make a trip to the overlook to get some of the best views in all of Gatlinburg. You can get some nice views deep within the National park as well but will have to make quite the drive to get there. Skip the drive and go to the scenic overlook and you won't be disappointed.

Excellent view if you can look past the astounding amount of trash and graffiti. On the signs, rails, trash all the way down the mountain and in the trees.
Pass.

We took the bypass for the first time and pulled over at the Scenic Overlook - we didn't know this existed. Take the time to stop and take in the view of the city! The leaves were mostly gone and it was a clear day.

Google Maps says the Scenic Overlook is "permanently closed" - is this really the case? I am not sure if it's temporarily due to COVID or truly permanently closed. We are in the area and would like to visit but don't want to make a special trip there if it's closed.
Thanks!

Try the Little River Trail. See
See hikinginthesmokys web site - littleriver.
A Park Ranger lead us on the trail. We booked it at the main park headquarters near Gatlinburg. The ranger info was fascinating as we learned a lot about the park. The path is very wide (an old road) and it's an easy walk. It parallels a gorgeous stream. Good luck.

We will be in the area mid September. Both are senior citizens. We are not very active. Casual walks are our thing. I would like to know if the walking trails are marked if they are rocky and steep. Thanks for the help.

You can drive to the Gatlinburg Scenic Overlook. There are a lot of places with wonderful views that you can drive to in the park and around the area!

We are planning to be in Gatlinburg the middle of September. Both are senior citizens and not very active. Are the different trails easy for non athletic, but not handicapped seniors. Are they marked? Thanks for the help.

I like the Little River trail which starts at Elkmont campground. This an old road which leads through the abandoned cabins of a former summer encampment and then follows a rushing creek. You can walk as far as you wish, up to several miles, or as little as a few hundred yards and have something interesting to see.
The nature trail at sugarlands is a good choice as is the Mingus Mill walk. The walk around the Oconoluftee pioneer farm at the Oconoluftee Visitors Center is a good choice.

I will be heading to Smoky Mountain area in June with my husband and 2 young daughters. I already posted about accommodations and found answers very very helpful, as we are new to the area. Now I am interested in feedback on recreation. I am trying to avoid burned out areas, which some of course is ok, but I am afraid too much might worry my girls as they wont be able to understand yet exactly what all happened and that it is safe now, etc... Anyhow, my first question is if anyone is familiar with the River Romp tubing company and their river routes. 1. Is it safe enough for a 3 1/2 yr old and 5 1/2 yr old (will have life jackets and be with us of course)? 2. Is the route along the river preserved or burned out? 3. How long does it take to do the 2.5 mi trip on tubes? 4. How long do you wait afterward to be picked up? 5. Is it along a highway or more of a scenic route? We would like to feel in nature, scenic, but also need to be accommodating to little kids, trying to find happy medium. I will also call and ask them directly but would be interested to hear outside feedback as well. Or if you have any other recommendations? Thank you very kindly!

We are not able to answer your questions about the properties that are privately owned. You don't need to be concerned about burned areas. New growth has sprung forth, and the area is beautiful and vibrant.

I would like to know how much of the scenery and forest has been burned out by the autumn forest fires. I understand that not all structures were burned but if we were wanting to go on a hike, to a scenic overlook or most of all rent a cabin, are there still pristine views of the smokies? And if so, where? I am having a lot of difficulty pin pointing this information. I will be travelling with young children and am looking for both outdoor activities, kid friendly attractions and memorable scenery. I will be driving from Illinois so unfortunately anywhere too far past the Sevierville/Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area is too far for us. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

Despite the fires, you are coming to the right place! This area is packed full of family-friendly attractions and so much natural beauty. We left the day before the fires swept into town and returned again just three weeks later. Although, many homes and areas and beauty were destroyed, much more was not. We are heading back in a fews. It is still one of my family's favorite places.
If you have small children, consider an afternoon drive up to Clingman's Dome, about 45 minutes from Gatlinburg. Every twist and turn is new, gorgeous scenery and the views from the top are spectacular. There are plenty of places to pull over and take short hikes or a picnic too along the way. The Chimney Tops area might be damaged but there are others; ask at the Sugarlands center. Tourism is the lifeblood of this area, and the people and the mountains are resilient. You will not be disappointed.
Attaching a photo from the Gatlinburg Overlook taken 3 weeks after fire. As you can see, the foreground is blackened but the mountains, forest, and city are still very much there.

Hopefully, no one in this area told you that Hwy 441 up the mountain was closed until April 1st. The road is open 24/7 year 'round except in inclement weather, such as ice and snow. Then it is only closed until they can get the road cleared.

Gatlinburg overlook is along the Gatlinburg bypass. That never closes unless there is inclement weather. Once cleared it opens back up. Not sure who told you it was closed but they gave you false info.
