Plus, an outdoor Bier Garten is open every day where guests over 21 years old can taste all different kinds of beer! Don’t miss out on experiencing Oktoberfest!

2. Boo Bash at Gatlinburg SkyLift Park

Another fun activity you won’t want to miss out on when you visit Gatlinburg in the fall is the Boo Bash at Gatlinburg SkyLift Park! This attraction hosts a series of events all season long, so there’s something for everyone, no matter when you’re in town! During October at the SkyLift Park, visitors can walk the haunted SkyTrail and meet animatronic witches, ghostly figures, lighted trees, and spooky spiders. At night, the SkyTrail turns into a haunted walk, and fog cloaks the Gatlinburg SkyBridge. There will also be showings of your favorite, family-friendly Halloween movies on select nights throughout the month, like Hocus Pocus. Plus, this is one of the best spots in town to see the gorgeous fall foliage!

3. Autumn at Anakeesta

Guests can also sit back and relax while they enjoy live music in Black Bear Village. The entire amusement park is decked out in autumn and Halloween decorations, giving you a cozy vibe!

4. Smoky Mountain Harvest Festival

Every fall, the city of Gatlinburg puts on the Smoky Mountain Harvest Festival. Every business in downtown Gatlinburg decorates their store front with yellows, oranges, and reds. You’ll enjoy spooky skeletons for Halloween, as well as cute scarecrows along every doorway. In addition to these decorations, you’ll also get to enjoy the natural decor: the colorful leaves along the mountainside!

5. Enjoy the Changing Leaves

You have several ways you can get up high and enjoy the amazing views in downtown Gatlinburg. Of course, you can go to Anakeesta or Gatlinburg SkyLift Park. If you plan on going to Oktoberfest, hop on the Aerial Tramway from downtown and take in the beauty as you rise over the mountains on a 2-mile ride in the gondola. You can also stop by the Gatlinburg Overlook, a picturesque viewing spot that shows downtown Gatlinburg set in the middle of the mountains.
