The Great Smoky Mountains of Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg Tennessee Summer 2019 Getaway – 4k
It’s hard to believe summer is winding down, but we took this years adventure to the next level.
Our 2019 getaway started with a breathtaking scenic 600 feet chondola ride up the summit of Anakeesta Mountain where we entered the beautiful firefly village. Its there we discovered there was magic in the mountain.
It was awesome!
We strolled the botanical Vista Gardens featuring 1,700 feet of walking garden trails filled with a variety of flowers, plants, and sculptures. The young-uns with no fear of heights chose to slowly walk across the 800 feet of connected treetop bridges at 60 feet above the forest floor.
We couldn’t pass on the only single-rail mountain coaster in the United States and took on the 25 mph exhilarating downhill Rail Runner with over 1,600 feet of twists and turns like champions. Nope, we skipped rappelling the 3,500 feet of Dueling Zip-lines soaring 125 feet above the ground. Been there done that and a lot more.
We did it all, starting with outlet mall shopping, the island at pigeon forge, dude’s daiquiris, the great smoky mountain wheel, margaretville, arcade city, mellow mushroom, battleground tactical laser tag, miniature golf, race carts, the island mirror maze, island bumper cars, the island creamery, reverse time, the spinning parrots coaster, dick’s last resort and more.
We had to check out Huck Finn’s Catfish Restaurant where you eat until you split a seam or pop your buttons. Those vittles bro, coleslaw, white beans, and southern hushpuppies and fried chicken.
“Well butter my butt & call me a biscuit.”
Where will our next adventure take us?
