Best Time to Visit

September and October make for nice months for visiting Pigeon Forge: the climate is still warm during the day, and the autumn foliage starts to paint the local landscapes in bright colors, a perfect backdrop for hiking excursions. The following months of fall and winter also do not have high numbers of tourists, but due to Gatlinburg being a well-known location for winter sports, prices for accommodations are increased. Spring brings along flowers in full bloom, but also higher chances of rain, but if you aren't bothered by that you'll be able to take advantage of the lower costs and decreased crowds. Peak tourism season takes place during the summer due to the warm and dry climate. You'll have to expect lines at restaurants and main attractions, and reserving your stay in advance is highly recommended.
