Experience a Mountain of family fun!
The journey to Anakeesta begins in downtown Gatlinburg, where a scenic Chondola or Ridge Rambler ride carries you to the summit of Anakeesta Mountain. At the top, step into a whimsical mountaintop village filled with treetop adventures, a lush botanical garden, nighttime experiences, shopping, and dining, all set against sweeping views of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Highlights include the Treetop Skywalk, an 880-foot series of hanging bridges suspended more than 50 feet above the forest floor, and AnaVista Tower, downtown’s highest point, offering 360-degree panoramic views. Thrill-seekers can take on the Dueling Zipline tour and our two mountain coasters: the Hellbender and Rail Runner.
After dark, don’t miss Astra Lumina, Gatlinburg’s top-rated nighttime experience. This one-of-a-kind journey leads you through an enchanted forest of light and sound that captures the wonder of the cosmos.
Dining and shopping add even more to the experience. Savor Smoky Mountain flavors at Kephart Café or enjoy elevated mountaintop dining at the Clifftop Restaurant, then browse village shops for artisan crafts and locally inspired gifts. With seasonal festivals and live music throughout the year, every visit to Anakeesta is uniquely memorable.
