Cades
Cove is the most visited part of the Great Smoky Mountains
National Park--and for good reason.
The idyllic setting of Cades Cove is a sampler of everything
the Park has to offer the Smokies visitor. Interesting
Tennessee cabins, cabin rentals, and
other pioneer structures dot this cove and tell the
history of its early inhabitants. Wildlife is abundant.
More than a dozen hiking
and horseback riding trails originate in Cades Cove.
The Smoky Mountains, which tower above picturesque Cades Cove,
serve as guardians to the Cove's serene beauty; and
the splendor of color when Mother
Nature empties her paint buckets on the Cove's hardwoods
in the Fall is unmatched! Cades Cove is home to trout
streams to tease the fly-
fishing enthusiast and campgrounds are available for
those who want to live in Cades Cove--even if only
temporarily. In addition, Smoky
Mountain cabin rentals found on this web site gives the opportunity
for tourists to hark back to the former inhabitants
of The Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

The Cove is best seen via Cades Cove Loop Road,
which is a one way paved lane that skirts the bottoms of the forested
mountains which surrounds the fields of the valley floor. The Loop
Road takes Smokies vacationers on a historical tour of early pioneer
farms, fields, roads and trails, leaving the Smokie's visitor with
the feeling that they have witnessed something wonderful and wholesome.
Cades Cove Loop is open to auto, bicycle and foot traffic every day of the year from sunup to sundown with a few exceptions. The Great Smoky Mountain National Park has designated that May through September on Wednesdays and Saturdays, the loop is reserved for hikers and bicyclist from sunup to 10am only. Auto traffic on those days is permitted in Cades Cove after 10am. Expect to spend one to two hours for the Cades Cove auto tour including a few stops along the way. Hikers and bicyclists will of course spend considerably more time in this Smoky Mountain paradise. Bicycles can be rented for a small fee at the Visitors Center at the beginning of Cades Cove.
