The Great Smoky Mountains are located on the border of Tennessee and North Carolina and run from the Pigeon River to the Little Tennessee River. The range is home to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which was established in 1934 and now hosts over 11 million visitors per year.

The Great Smoky Mountains earned their name from the mist and fog that usually blankets the valleys and other lower elevations. This is due to the heavy annual rainfall the mountains receive and the relatively warm temperatures. Combined with sunrises and sunsets, the “smoke” makes for beautiful views visitors don’t soon forget.
