Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a fantastic destination at any time of year, but on Easter weekend the park and the surrounding area become the perfect place to spend a holiday. On Easter Sunday, a free ride on the Ober Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway will lead guests up the mountain to a gorgeous sunrise service at Ober Gatlinburg, where they will be able to truly appreciate their surroundings and the stunning views.

There is also the Great Smoky Easter Arts and Crafts Show, which is hosted every year around Easter and features tons of art, crafts, and goodies that anyone would love to find in their Easter basket. Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one hour from Knoxville.
