Aerial Tram Ride to Ober Gatlinburg

We took this Aerial Tram Ride up to Ober Gatlinburg while on vacation there in September of 2010. We had seen the Aerial Tram before on our trip there but had never taken the ride before. We were glad we did this time around and it was a fun ride to the top. Beautiful scenery all the way up! A few spots in the video are shaky but it couldn’t of been helped being on a moving tram.. Watch for my related video from the scenic chairlift to the top of Mount Harrison while we were up here at Ober Gatlinburg. What a ride and veiw! Here is a little more on the Tram Ride and what else is up at Ober Gatlinburg: Ober Gatlinburg is an amusement park and ski area, located in the mountains overlooking Gatlinburg, Tennessee, USA. Established in 1962, the area contains a large mall with indoor amusements, a skating rink, snack bars, a full-service lounge, restaurant, and gift and clothing stores. Outside there is an alpine slide, a scenic chairlift to the top of Mount Harrison, bumper cars and kiddie rides. What was formerly known as the Black Bear Habitat where visitors could see bears close-up recently expanded to become the Smoky Mountain Wildlife Adventure, where in addition to the bears there are animals native to the Great Smoky Mountains such as river otters, opossums, raccoons, turtles, snakes, brown squirrels and flying squirrels. An aerial tram connects Ober Gatlinburg to downtown Gatlinburg. The aerial tramway departs from downtown Gatlinburg and travels west to the resort

Golf in the Smokies – A Unique Experience

Golf in the Smokies – A Unique Experience

Article by Jim Watson

Have you ever played golf in the mountains? If not, you’ve missed a real treat! Not only do the Smokies hold several world-class courses, but also the scenery you’ll experience while making the rounds is nothing short of spectacular.

Bent Creek Golf Course in Gatlinburg

Designed by three-time Masters and British Open Championship winner Gary Player, Bent Creek literally has its ups and downs. The front nine lay level in the valley. The back nine, however, deliver a greater challenge with a mountain course. All the while, you’ll find the course’s namesake, Bent Creek, meandering throughout the landscape. Named by Southern Living Travel Guide as one of the Top Fifty Golf Courses in the South, Bent Creek is a must-play while in the Smokies.

Gatlinburg Golf Course in Pigeon Forge

Look in any direction and you’ll discover stunning scenery. Mountain ranges flank the sides while massive pines and other evergreens line the fairways. The recent completion of a half million-dollar renovation has left Gatlinburg Golf Course in pristine condition and ready for you. A design of noted golf course-architect William Langford, this course is well landscaped and offers a challenging day for novice and experienced golfers.

While there, you must play the twelfth hole, better known as “Sky Hi.” This 194-yard hole dramatically drops 200 feet tee to green for some incredible driving and putting. Located in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg Golf Course is convenient to both downtown and Dollywood.

Eagle’s Landing Golf Course in Sevierville

With a four-star rating from Golf Digest and a nomination for Golf Digest’s “Best Public Course” award in 1995, Eagle’s Landing is one golf course you won’t want to miss. A championship course, Eagle’s Landing has hosted the Tennessee PGA Tournament as well as other prestigious events. However, it’s accessible to all. With five sets of tees, players of every skill level can enjoy 18 on this course.

River Islands Golf Club in Knoxville

River Islands is an exceptional course that also rates Golf Digest’s four-star rating. Nestled along the bank of the French Broad River, you’ll play nine water holes including those on individual islands. Designed by internationally renowned golf course-architect Arthur Hills, River Islands puts spectacular golf within reach: it’s only 30 minutes from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. From mountain peaks breaking through the misty morning air to a river that intertwines throughout the course, River Islands merges nature and sport flawlessly.

Challenging, exhilarating, beautiful, memorable. A golf experience like no other awaits you in Tennessee’s Smoky Mountains. Pack your clubs, your shoes and your camera; then make your way to some of the most unique courses in the United States. You’ll thoroughly enjoy this different style of golf so much you’ll want to return year after year.

Question by Hibari’s Hime: Where can I find a Gatlinburg Cabin with 4 rooms and sleeps 8?
Me and my friends are planning a trip to Gatlinburg where we are going to stay in a cabin for our Spring Break next year. I know this may be a little early but me and my friend have been researching for days on an affordable cabin for all the couples to stay in with 4 rooms and it sleeps 8 where each couple will have their own room. So can anybody help us find a perfect one for us to stay in? Thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by Mac
Hibari’s Hime …

This Gatlinburg cabin rental has 4 MBR suites (each bedroom has its own private bathroom) and is over 4,000 sq ft, so there should be plenty of room for you and your friends:

http://SmokyMountainViews.com

This Gatlinburg cabin also has fantastic views of the Smoky Mountains, a huge game room (Wii, pool, air hockey, foosball, piano, poker table, big-screen HD TV, hot tub on deck, etc.), lots of parking, privacy, multiple decks, jacuzzi, full-size kitchen, sunroom, screen room, dining room — and it’s clean!

http://smokymountainviews.com/Reservations.html

And you can check for Gatlinburg cabin-rental specials and discount-codes here:

http://smokymountainviews.com/Specials.html

Keep in mind that many Smoky Mountain cabin rentals in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, have a minimum-age requirement for the person signing the rental agreement, and the minimum age for this Gatlinburg cabin rental is 25. I believe the issue is the same for Pigeon Forge cabin rentals.

Hope that helps, and good luck.
