One day in Great Smokey Mountains - need your input
I have one day in GSM (coming by from Gatlinburg)
Current itinerary plan is
Early am start and drive from garlinburg to clingmans dome
Hike kuwohi trail then enjoy a packed coffee and morning breakfast
Hike forney ridge trail to Andrew's bald
Kuwohi visitors center for break and bathrooms plus snack
Head to alum cave trailhead and hike to bluffs
Back to gatlinburg
I would like to hike chimney tops as well but that might be pushing it for only one day.
What are your thoughts?
I'm looking to get some hikes in with views and my husband and I are both physically fit where a 2/3/4 hour hike doesn't bother us.
But we will have a 4+ hour drive home the next day so want to be reasonable in number of hikes to do.
Should I switch one trail out for another? Is one overrated and should be skipped?
Greatly appreciate any input!
