Imagine traversing the beautiful landscapes of the Smoky Mountains with your furry friend by your side. But is it possible? Can dogs go to the Smoky Mountains?
Yes, dogs are permitted in the Smoky Mountains, but there are specific guidelines in place.
Dogs are allowed in campgrounds, picnic areas, and along roads, provided they are kept on a leash not exceeding 6 feet in length.
Dogs are not allowed on park trails except for the Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail.
Pet handlers are responsible for immediately collecting and disposing of pet excrement in trash receptacles.
While pets can accompany visitors, they must not be left unattended in vehicles or RVs.
This luxurious mountain retreat not only welcomes humans but also their canine companions!
