Here are five attractions that can only be found in the Center of Fun in the Smokies.
The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the #1 visited national park in the United States. The beauty of the Smoky Mountains along with all the wildlife and many species of plants and trees make exploring nature one of the top things to do in Pigeon Forge. Whether you do some hiking on one of the many trails or just take a scenic drive, you will get a close up view of the sights and sounds of nature. Enjoy more quality time in nature by picnicking, horseback riding, or camping in one of the designated areas in the park.
Pigeon Forge is home to the only location for zorbing in the United States. Zorbing originated in New Zealand and is an exciting experience of rolling down a hill while enclosed in a very large transparent ball. The ball is called the OGO at the Outdoor Gravity Park in Pigeon Forge. The park has recently been renovated to offer a longer hill and more courses for even more fun. Be sure to check out the H2OGO for a little slipping and sliding during warmer months!
The Inn at Christmas Place is a hotel like no other and can only be found in Pigeon Forge. It offers Old World charm and Christmas all year long! It has been voted Top 25 Best by TripAdvisor and Top 10 4-star Properties by Trivago. If you love Christmas, then this is the place to stay when you visit Pigeon Forge. Who said you have to wait until December for Christmas?
Flyaway Indoor Skydiving brought America’s first vertical wind tunnel to Pigeon Forge. Here you get the chance to experience human flying while inside a 21 foot wind tunnel with winds up to 120 mph. With the help of some quality instructors, this task, although challenging, is a fun and memorable experience. There is no jumping out of a plane or freefalling from some crazy height and almost anyone can fly!
