Product Info

-What you can expect-
Drive through Cades Cove with its collection of historic homesteads, preserved buildings like Cable Grist Mill and churches. The scenic valley is also one of the best and most reliable areas to see wildlife in the Smoky Mountains, including bears.

As you cross the park along Newfound Gap Road, you'll experience the landscape that gives the mountains their name, with blue mist rising from the valleys and creating the area's distinctive atmosphere. Whether you're keen on longer walks or prefer shorter, easier trails, the Smokies offer options for different hiking abilities. This audio guide lets you choose the routes that suit you best, sharing context and background along the way.

Along your journey, hear stories about the early settlers and the creation of the national park, learn about local wildlife, and discover insights into the Cherokee Nation culture and museums, all while exploring Great Smoky Mountains National Park at your own pace.
