Smoky Mountain adventures

Ziplines over the treetops, a helicopter hop over the ridges, off-road rides — the adrenaline side of a Smokies trip, with the real duration behind the price.

Before you go

1

Short and priced by the minute

A helicopter "tour" can be four minutes; a zipline course two or three hours. Check the duration, not just the price.

2

Age, weight and weather limits

Most operators set minimum ages and weight ranges, and cancel in storms.

Our take

Go for it if

You want one big-thrill memory of the trip — teens especially.

Skip it if

Heights or speed aren't your thing, or the budget is tight — the trails give the views for free.
