Halloween Activities in The Smokies

‘Spooky Season’ is among us! If you’re wondering what the best Halloween activities in the Smokies are, we’ve got you covered. Here are our favorite things to do during the spookiest month of the year! 

1. Take a Ghost Tour 

Ghost Walk of Gatlinburg takes you on a leisurely stroll through the hidden alleys and shadowy streets of the Smokies while you hear tales of the past and learn Gatlinburg history along the way. Gatlinburg might be more haunted than you think…  

2. Spend the Day at Kyker Farms

Go on an authentic farm adventure at Kyker Farms  featuring corn mazes, hay rides, pumpkin patches, a petting zoo, a playground fit for adults and kids, and much more! This farm is owned and operated by the Kyker family; 9 generations strong! 

3. Trick-or-Treat at The Island

A trip to Pigeon Forge isn’t complete without going to The Island. Halloween is no exception! Dress up in your best costumes and head there for the ultimate trick-or-treat experience. Every store there gives out candy, and you’re sure to get a sugar rush!
