Smokies Fall Foliage

Fall Foliage in the Smoky Mountains

Peak Season: Mid-October – Mid-November

Any season is a great season to visit the Smokies because this area has a little bit of everything, but autumn offers an especially unique opportunity for visitors because the fall leaves here are unlike anywhere else, which makes it one of the most opportune times to have a Smoky Mountain vacation! There is a wide variety of accommodations within the area that make the most of the season's greatest features. The custom-built log cabins and chalets provide the rustic, yet cozy atmosphere that really compliments the pristine mountain environment, and truly allows you to feel as if you can escape from the city life and getaway to the woodlands of nature in a place that encompasses the authenticity of the surrounding forests and timberland. The condominiums are built with luxury and convenience in mind as they sit high in the mountaintops and along the main Parkway which is peppered with attractions, shopping, and entertainment. In addition, most lodging options are fully equipped with numerous amenities including hot tubs, jacuzzis, game rooms, theater rooms, swimming pools, saunas, fireplaces and more! Of course, one of the most sought after features, however, is an outstanding gorgeous view, and the Smoky Mountains do not disappoint.

The most exceptional fall viewing is currently at its peak at most mid-altitude levels within the area. Peak color at the mid and low elevation exhibits the most phenomenal fall color due to the vast diversity of trees that are fixated at this altitude. Color is progressing rapidly and is practically showing a full range of hues presently. It is the the ideal time to take full advantage of the beauty this area has to offer during this most spectacular time of year. There are a number of ways to take in the captivating fall mountain views in and around the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. You could simply take a scenic drive along the roads winding throughout the area or head out on foot for a hike along some of the many trails in the park. Check out the scenery from above by going for a ride in a helicopter or take flight on the new balloon ride. Even if you just sit out on the deck and admire the views from your vacation rental, you will be sure to be impressed.

This year's display of color has been forecast to be quite spectacular, and since the area is already well known for showcasing the fall leaves better than most places throughout the nation, it provides the perfect backdrop for making your vacation especially memorable. It's hard to forget the vibrant oranges and yellows as they fade into the radiant crimson reds and dark purples, but that doesn't mean you won't want to capture this great exhibition with some photos to show off to your friends and family back home! So, if you are lucky enough to be in the Smokies right now, then know that your trip has been supplied with an extra special essence of mother-nature.
