Spring

Spring on The Peaceful Side of the Smokies

In every season there’s a reason to fall in love with the Smokies. Springtime brings wildflowers, showy blooms on shrubs and trees, birdsong and mountain laurel blooms. The Smoky Mountains have some of the best trout streams east of the Rockies, including more than 1,000 miles of streams that are home to legions of wild rainbow, brown, and brook trout.

Festivals and outdoor events are all part of the outdoor fun that come with a Smoky Mountain spring. Explore the outdoors in parks, museums and historic sites. Remember that spring weather can be unpredictable and dress for the unexpected.
