Carolina Mountain Vacations Among Stunning Fall Colors

Fall Kayaking on Fontana Lake next to the Great Smoky Mountains

The Great Smoky Mountains are renowned for many things, wildflowers in the spring, clear rivers and creeks in summer, and of course glorious fall foliage. Our local chamber of commerce here in Bryson City, NC has put together a great guide for finding the best color in the Great Smokies this fall.

Those visiting the Great Smoky Mountains for leap-peaping will find several great hiking trails and drives within a short distance of their Smoky Mountain vacation rentals. Hwy 441 through the National Park provides stunning vistas from the car. Quiet walkways along the way let visitors get up close to the leaves.

For those so inclined, a round of golf in the Smokies among brillant fall color is a super way to relax. A recreational kayak tour on Lake Fontana lets visitors see the mountains from a whole new angle, with the fall colors reflected on the quiet green waters.

All of these Smoky Mountain vacation packages from a basecamp of a choice of great Bryson City NC cabin rentals.
