Chimneys Picnic Area

I love this spot! It's one that my family and I go to every time we visit Gatlinburg just because we love the beautiful, huge stream of water that runs through it! This place is just so peaceful and beautiful! This time we decided to do the hike inside the park. It was not super difficult. It was a nice little hike. The restrooms were actual toilets with running water, which was a nice change up from the other toilets at some of the other locations throughout the Smokeys.

Beautiful picnic spot with the river running right next to it. Listen to the sound of the river and the leaves rustling in the trees as you have a nice picnic at one of the many picnic tables throughout. We love having lunch or a snack here and then hanging out by the river each time we visit.

Pretty cool place to check out some nature. The water level in the creek was down so we were able to run around in the creek and climb on the rocks and get some adventures in. Was very fun and a cool place to visit. Scenery was beautiful and everybody loved the place. Definitely worth going and checking out to get some pictures and to mess around.

Great place to picnic by a creek. They have restrooms. Nice picnic tables. Grills available.

Lots of picnic tables spread out nicely! Also parking for rugged nature trail.
