The Great Gatlinburg Getaway (G3)
Gatlinburg, Tennessee
September 17th – 23rd 2023
It’s time to revisit the Great Smoky Mountains and this time we’re going to change things up a bit. Our host hotel will be the Greystone Lodge, one block off the main drag in Gatlinburg, TN. There is plenty to do and see in Gatlinburg and this location provides easy access to downtown (walking distance) as well as convenient access to the bus system that runs throughout Gatlinburg (bus stop across the street). There are many restaurants, shops, and activities to keep us busy in the evenings and throughout the event. There is a parking garage attached to the Lodge and hot breakfast is included with our rooms each morning.

Throughout the week we’ll be visiting some familiar places and exploring some new ones. The new section of the Foothills Parkway has opened since our last trip and provides some great cruising road and fantastic views. The Cades Cove loop has been fully paved (= now Prowler friendly) and the view from Clingman’s Dome is not to be missed. Of course, no trip to Tennessee is complete without running the Tail of the Dragon at least one time, and we’ll be running it twice – once in each direction. Another great scenic drive is the Cherohala Skyway and we’ll be re-visiting that as well. I think everyone enjoyed the train ride in West Virginia a couple of years ago, so we’re going to try and commandeer the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad for a day of sightseeing without a steering wheel in our hands all day. We’ll wrap up the event in typical fashion with a banquet dinner Friday evening and then head home Saturday morning.

Mark your calendars and keep checking back for more details!
