6 days in Bryson City Itinerary

The location of an old Cherokee village, Bryson City embraces a quiet side of the Great Smoky Mountains.

Change things up with these side-trips from Bryson City: Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Clingmans Dome, Mount LeConte, &more) and Dry Falls (in Highlands). There's lots more to do: relax and float downstream with a rafting and tubing tour, try to win big at Casino at Harrah’s Cherokee, look for gifts at Unique Gift Outlet, and view the masterpieces at Elizabeth Ellison Gallery.
