Cades Cove, Tennessee is the most visited area of the Smoky Mountains. Roughly 31 miles away from the city of Pigeon Forge, Cades Cove is in the 6,800-acre valley known for its picturesque landscapes.
European settlers settled here in the early 1800s, contributing to why Cades Cove has the largest variety of historic buildings in the entire national park. As you make your way through the area, you can see historic structures like restored churches, old grist mills and pioneer log cabins. The enriched history of Cades Cove has left its lasting mark with its presence still felt today.
The best way to soak in the beauty Cades Cove poses is to take a leisurely drive on the Cades Cove Loop Road. It’s an 11-mile paved one-way road that winds through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, offering scenic views of the mountain tops, wildflower meadows and rolling greens. The entire loop takes anywhere between two and four hours to drive through, but you’ll wish it wouldn’t end.
Cades Cove is filled with jaw dropping trails and waterfalls in its forests. Abrams Falls is a striking waterfall with a 20-foot drop to a pool and stream located below on Abrams Creek. Along the number of hiking trails, there are numerous opportunities to soak in the serenity of the landscape’s mountains and take pictures.
In addition to the stunning natural beauty, Cades Cove, Tennessee also boasts a long and fascinating past. Learn more about the History of Cades Cove at https://experiencecadescove.com/blog/learn-the-history-of-the-great-smoky-mountains-national-park/

Good morning from Mt. LeConte! Nothing quite like fresh snow and solitude in the GSM.
