Great Smoky Mountains National Park

“Loved the challenges each day of length and technical terrain.  Great variety of trails.  Great overview of the entire park.” Lori S.

Great Smoky Mountain National Park Group Hiking Tour

In so many ways, Great Smoky Mountain National Park is dedicated to hiking and we are challenged by the park’s 850 miles of trails to select those that will provide our hikers with a varied experience and a true sense of those features for which the park is famous. When one considers the park’s proximity to so many major population centers of the eastern U.S., it’s difficult to form an image of wilderness, but under the protection and guidance of the National Park Service, wilderness survives in Great Smoky.

Join Our Spring Tour

The wilderness feel of the park is due in no small measure to its almost unbroken cover of trees, and the size and variety will astound you. With a spring tour we will experience the explosion of new growth in the forest including the blossoms of uncountable trees and shrubs, and at least 40 varieties* of flowers that bloom in May.  Water is everywhere: creeks, streams, prongs, waterfalls and cascades. We’ll cross a number, sometimes on bridges, sometimes on foot logs, and sometime on nothing other than the soles of our boots. These are just a few of the elements that make the Smoky range special.

*In Timberline’s 40th anniversary year, we are celebrating all things 40!
