Cades Cove
It would almost be a shame to venture into Great Smoky Mountains National Park without taking a few hours to explore one of its most popular sites-Cades Cove, TN.

Located approximately 25 miles west of Gatlinburg, TN, Cades Cove (originally called "Kate's Cove" in honor of the wife of Cherokee Chief Abrams) is such a popular destination because it embodies all the best that Great Smoky Mountains National Park has to offer in terms of both beauty and historical value.
