There’s a lot of beauty in the state of Tennessee, and most folks find themselves cycling or hiking through the Great Smoky Mountains or across the Cumberland Plateau. The state’s scenic byways are also well-traveled, both by Tennessee locals and tourists from across the nation. Cades Cove is tucked away on the eastern edge of the state, and it remains one of the most naturally beautiful locations in the state. Come for fresh air and wildflowers and stay awhile. This summer through September 30th, Cades Cove will be closing the loop to vehicles on Wednesdays to conduct a pilot study regarding cycling and walking in the area.
