Great Smoky Mountains
Accessibility |
|
|
|
| Much of the Smokies can be enjoyed from your vehicle
and from accessible facilities and programs.
Activities range from viewing scenery to exploring
the intricacies of the forest floor to learning
about the resourceful people who made a living from
this wilderness. The National Park Service continues
to make more areas accessible.

Loop Road to Hyatt Lane will be open
from sunrise
(around 6:30 a.m.) to 12 p.m. The

Mill area as well as the several
trailheads located on the western
end of Cades Cove. At 12 p.m.
general access to Cades Cove will be
terminated at the Townsend Wye (Y)near

Cades Cove will be closed on
Saturday as they are located beyond
the Hyatt Lane closure. See map for
trails affected.
