Let Us Do All the Work - Visit Planning - Packing Tips
To help you decide what to pack, you need to know that the climate year-round is close to perfect. Our balmy summer days average 84 degrees. Our temperate winters average 40 degrees, with snow in the higher elevations.
Pigeon Forge is a family-friendly town, so dress is casual for most activities. In the summer, light clothing is most comfortable. Layers work well in the winter.
It's easiest to get around Pigeon Forge by car. Virtually every attraction is located along the 6-lane, 5-mile-long Parkway. The traffic lights are even numbered to help you to find things. But if you'd rather ride than drive, you can hop on the Pigeon Forge Trolley. For just 25 cents, you can travel to more than 100 stops throughout the city.
