Hiking in the Smokies is safe! Right?
Просмотров 1153 месяца назад
One of the best parts of going to the Smoky Mountains are views! And the best way to experience them is up close. This is why day hikes are so common in the Smokies. People want to experience the fresh air and witness the miracle of the mountains in person and not from their car. But hiking has risks and many people don’t always think to prepare for short hikes. But that can be a huge mistake a...

Nice video 😊😊
Thanks so much !!
We are coming the first week of Dec and have booked The Tree Top Resort. Can you tell us about it. Great videos. Thank you.
December is a fantastic time to see the city! I have not been to this resort, but maybe one of the other views have and might be able to share? Please let us know about your experience! I’m always looking for new content ideas!!
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains will do I will send you a link when I get a video edited. Love that time is good, also how crowded is it at that time/ Thanks again.
It is very busy. That tine of the year.
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains oh ok ha thanks for heads up
Wow, thank you for sharing!
We love Park Grill. We had our wedding dinner there 5 years ago, Park Grill was fantastic for everyone, they had a table decorated for us and even brought a small wedding cake for us to enjoy after dinner. Wonderful
Being a biker or walker, parking may not be an issue. I’ll use the trolley if need be.
By far the best way to see the city, and with traffic might be quicker to walk or bike! Thanks for sharing!
Well said!
The best way to view Gatlinburg is as one big state fair. The food is greasy and expensive, the crowds and lines are long, and the sanitation could be iffy, but if you want healthy foods to eat take the drive into the mountains with a picknick basket and enjoy the views and watch out for bears.
I lived in Michigan for 50 years. Up there out in the country, you cant avoid seeing deer on the back roads. Now I live in Oak Ridge and when I go to Cades Cove, I can't help but laugh at the vehicles I see with Michigan plates stopping to gaze at the deer like it's the first time they have ever seen one
OMG! I’m from up north and our insurance is so high because of deer. Yet I’m still stopping and looking. I just think it’s something about being in the Mountains!
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains I live near Knoxville, have little woods next to the house, and still see deer almost daily. But I agree, in the mountains you do tend to look at them differently
No. Boudicas.
Take the bypass and go around, Catlinturd SUCKs
I always enjoy your fun videos and your bear buddy. This is an attraction I will not visit.
Thanks !! I try to keep it lite and humorous.
Thanks for telling us about 2 we are not familiar with. We love the diner, good breakfast & is somewhat out of the way of the big crowds. Works well on grocery day since it is right by Publix & Kroger☺️.
Our pleasure! Hope you have a good experience if you end up going!
Another excellent video, I've loved all your content and they've been trully fantastic resource as I plan my trip from the UK over to the Smokey Mountains for next summer. Thank you :)
Wow! Thank you for that amazing feed back! We loved visiting the UK last summer and it’s awesome that you are coming to our neck of the woods- or across the pond as they say. Summers in TN can be brutal, so remember to bring that sun block!
We'll be in TN in a few weeks and I really appreciate the information and tips. Thank you!
Thank you for your comment! Hope you have a great trip!
When driving the loop, if you want to stop and look at something, pull off the road!!! Do not block the road!!!!! It clearly states this rule on a sign at the entrance.
I truly wish people would follow those rules!! It’s very frustrating. Thank you for putting that out there!
You are right, so many pancake & breakfast places to choose from. We had not heard anything about this place but, since we are here & it looked good, so going to try it Friday. Thanks for telling us about it☺️. 🫎
Thank you for your comment! We’d love to hear how it went if you go!
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains going tomorrow morning, will try to remember to comment!!
Hope you like it !!
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains plans got changed,as they often do, & we did not get there today. Have to try it another time.
Aww. Hopefully you can get there another time !!
Always eat here at least once while in town
Thank you for sharing! It’s always good to hear that others enjoy the same places!
Skyland ranch is definitely the best ruclips.net/video/CBRaSpBzmGo/видео.htmlsi=PJeEaZdnh0rmxgcN

I've seen a bunch of videos on this ride. Yours is a fun one. I'm staying across the street in October ('24) so I think I'll try it out.
So much fun. You just can’t take the ride seriously or it ruins the fun! Let us know how it goes!
The best place to visit ever. I love pigeon forge. Love from Kentucky
Thank you for the Video. We are coming in the middle of November and staying in pigeon forge. Really looking forward to it. Hope we get the chance to see some bears😊
Cades Cove and Anakeesta are pretty good places to spot them in the evenings. Good luck and have fun!
Nice video. I'm staying very close for a few days in October. A great overview of the Island.
October will be an awesome time with the leaves and decorations! Thank you for your compliment!
There really are too many choices. On my first visit I passed on all the Ripley's attractions. I loved Anakeesta. On my October trip I'll check out the salt and pepper museum - never heard of it until your video.
They are not well known and the big attractions over shadow them! Let us know what you think! Thanks!
Just found your channel searching for info between the cities! Fantastic video and so much common sense information. Thank you !! :)
Thank You !! I noticed there are very few content driven videos out there. I am just trying to fill that gap.
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains you absolutely did!
This is a great video!!!
Thank You !!
We just did a 3 night stay in Gatlinburg last year. We will be going back for a week this year and plan to do more in Pigeon Forge and Sevierville.
I hope the suggestions in my video help you with your planning. Hope you have a great trip. It’s a wonderful area to visit !!
Gatlinburg downtown (Gatlinburg Inn). Your parking is taken care of. Walk around in evening (or anytime). Good food places for all meals. Good "headquarters" place to stay.
Thank You for sharing. We love hearing other peoples opinions on places in the area !
Terrific video. I'm doing research for my October trip and this is helpful. I'm splitting my stay 3 ways: a few days at DreamMore, a few days in Pigeon Forge and a few in Gatlinburg.
Thank You !! October is a great month to go to the smokies. Dollywood has the halloween theme going on. Which is great. And foliage in the mountains is spectacular.
You do a great job of singling out an attraction & giving your viewers a very thorough & detailed commentary about it. This is both helpful & interesting☺️. I am very glad I found your channel especially after the disappointment of some other channels who need to put their face in every shot & just ramble with no research. Yours is unique & I wish you well but, the competition amongst Smoky Mountain RUclipsrs can be vicious!! Be well🙏🏻. 🫎
Thank you so much! It's great getting positive feed back and I really appreciate it! I tend to agree with your comment about other channels. It's a frustration we both share.
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains sounds like you are from the area, or go there frequently, so you probably have witnessed some of behavior that goes beyond just creating honest content & what it brings & crosses over into grifting & exploiting folks so they can live on a permanent vacation! Anyway, I really like the way you do things & I wish you well🙏🏻☺️. 🫎
Thank you for your post! Dollywood is a wonderful park, and I wish I’d thought to point out how great the employees are. Thank you for sharing your insight!
Once upon a time I went to WDW at least once a year - often twice. In 2023 I decided to try Dollywood for my vacation. I'm a stagehand so I have a special place in my heart for live shows. I loved the shows. I loved the rides. But mostly I loved the people there - everyone was so nice. Christmas time was spectacular. I'm looking forward to going in October this year.
The skeletons name is Fred. I think it’s a play on the Coffee or Die bit
Good to know! Thanks for sharing that bit of information
Too many people now to even try and enjoy going there.
Not sure how long your channel has existed, I just found it. I have went thru many Smoky Mountain RUclips Channels & so, while you have a lot of competition in that area, I can tell you that you have done better than most; I enjoyed it! Your video was structured very well, with rolling video coupled with a very informative narrative that revealed actual research. And, as it was sectioned, the viewer could scroll to a particular subject of interest if they wanted. Very well done! Much better than many of these “effortless” channels who just walk thru an attraction, with their face taking up half the screen, and mindlessly jabbering about it thinking themselves some kind of celebrity, 🙄. And of your nice piece of work, someone’s only observation is how you pronounced 1 word; REALLY??!! I wish you the best with your RUclips endeavors🙏🏻🫎.
Thank you very much for the kind words I truly appreciate it. I try to give as much accurate information I can. I really try not give my opinions to much. I just try to give an overview of the place. So people get an idea of what to expect when visiting. I started this channel just over a year ago.
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains I wish you well. We are coming there soon for a month & in fact are staying on the quiet side. We know it well & spend much time in Cades Cove, looking for that “symbol of the Smokies” there so Townsend makes a lot of sense for us☺️🫎!! Be well!! If not too personal of a question, do you live in the area?? We would move there if we could, just not doable for us☺️. We are older & retired & we envy those that get to live in that extraordinary & beautiful place🙏🏻.
We dont live in that area. But we are down their as much as we can be.
@@bearfactsofthesmokeymountains us too. We are Blessed to be able to travel there🙏🏻☺️🫎.
Good food
We liked it !!
❤ the tractor!
Great info but please, please the word mountain has a “T” in it that really should be pronounced. Every time you said, “mou-ans” I cringed😂
It seems to be a thing with younger people today and they sound like they just came out of the ghetto. Ignorant speech isn’t cute. That word is pronounced moun-ten.
Keep in mind for those unfamiliar, Parsons branch is a 1 way road that's 4x4 and higher clearance vehicles preferably and is unmaintained
I once had to evacuate Savannah , Ga because of a hurricane and ended up in Chattanooga. I knew nothing about the place until i went there but i loved it! Its a beautiful city. The locals are rather hard to understand though. Very heavy southern accents.
Do they have crab legs?😮
Yes they do have crab legs. But I am not sure if they have them every day or not.
Thank you for this video. Is there a place to rent E-bikes? Can you get a parking pass at cades cove gift shop? How are the crowds the middle of October?
Hello, Thank You for watching. I dont think E bikes are allowed on the loop. As far as parking passes go. I dont think they are available in the gift shop. But I think there are kiosk by the loop road entrance that you can purchase parking passes at. And October is a crazy busy time of year in the smokies. But its worth it. The changing leaves are beautiful.
I ❤ the GSM. I subscribed 😊⛰️
Thank You very much !!
Lol! I guess you were really listening or reading! My bad😅
Uber? That's a form of transportation. 😂 I think you meant Ober. ⛰️
Thanks for the tips! ❤
Driving by on the parkway, didn’t realize just how large the restaurant actually is. After watching Bear Facts review, we check it out ourselves next month.
i love this resturant . they have very nice staff
I didn't find this place special. It is costly at $25+ drinks? Fried chicken is OK but not at that price. I particularly found the salad bar unappetizing with iceberg lettuce. Overall the food section looked limited.
you did beautiful video!Bear-😍
Thank You very much !!
