Spring 2017 Is Here In the Smokies!


 All over, we're seeing trees blooming with the pastel and super-bright colors you've come to expect with Springfest. Our Dogwood trees are in full bloom and look like great balls of popcorn atop the aged wooden trunks. Hydrangeas, roses, tulips, rhododendron, fraser magnolia and many more stand out from even a fair distance. You won't see the colors from the mountains like you do in Autumn, but that gives you all the more incentive to go out and explore the Smokies through the hiking trails, motor trails and city parks.

Surely by now you know the Smokies are open for tourism as the Spring Break season takes upon us. If that wasn't enough, Dollywood is back open with the Festival of Nations back and better than ever to begin our new Springfest with a worldly blast!
