Extra Drive Details:
Get ready to enjoy all that is Cades Cove.The roads in Cades Cove are gravel but well maintained. Last year we saw bears, turkeys and deer. The animals in the park are wild and may or may not be visible. Bring a camera with a long lens or binoculars. Bring water and snacks as there aren’t any vending machines in the park.
Cades Cove is a lush valley surrounded by mountains and one of the most popular destinations in the Great Smokies. Deer are almost always sighted in the fields, and observations of other wildlife, including bear, Wild Turkey, and fox are possible.
A wide array of historic buildings dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries is scattered through-out the cove. These include a grist mill, a variety of barns, three churches, and a marvelous collection of log homes and outbuildings.
An 11-mile one-way loop road takes you around the cove.
A visitor center (open daily), restrooms, and the Cable Mill historic area are located half-way around the loop road.
