2. Go for a Hike
When you stay at Heritage Cabin Rentals, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is close by. If you love to hike, you’ll love the gorgeous views of the Great Smoky Mountains during the winter. It’s beautiful after it snows, but be careful not to slip! Laurel Falls is a popular hike in the winter because the waterfall is a picture-perfect sight when it’s frozen. Visitors also enjoy the Alum Cave Trail during the winter because of the icicles that form, creating a stunning view. Bring a camera with you to capture all the beautiful sights!
3. Visit Dollywood
Dollywood is a magical place to be all-year long, but there’s something about the wintertime that makes it seem extra special. If you visit during the month of December, you’ll get to experience Dollywood’s Smoky Mountain Christmas, which is a dream come true for everyone. There’ll be special Christmas shows, holiday treats, an opportunity to meet Santa Claus, and so much more. If you love Christmas music, you’re sure to love Christmas in the Smokies, Dollywood’s musical Christmas tradition with a 14-member cast performing all your holiday favorites. Families will love the special drone show that lights up the night sky with beautiful holiday colors. And don’t forget to stop by The Grist Mill in the theme park to enjoy warm, world-famous cinnamon bread!
Please note: Dollywood closes in early January for the season and reopens in March.
