What are some fun things to do during the winter in Tennessee?

Looking for some fun ways to embrace the cold weather months in Tennessee? Here are some of our favorite winter attractions in TN:

  • Wears Valley. This hidden spot in the Great Smoky Mountains isn't far from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, but it has all the dreamy beauty of a Tennessee small town.
  • Harrison Bay State Park is beautiful any time of the year, but when you go in the winter there is just something magical about it.
  • Cherokee Caverns hosts a beautiful Christmas event every year, with the whole of the underground decked out in lights and infused with Christmas music.
  • The Holiday Lights event at Cheekwood is one you will not want to miss. Cheekwood gives Nashville a good name when it comes to Christmas lights, and we're big fans of the festive walk through their expansive gardens!
  • Frozen Fall Creek Falls. On the rare occasion that we get a cold snap long enough to freeze some falls, there's no place more magical than Fall Creek Falls!
