Nestled in a stunning, secluded valley, framed by the forested peaks of the Great Smoky Mountains, Cades Cove was settled in the early 19C by pioneers. Follow Little River Road, which winds its way for 10.5mi, to the remote, now uninhabited farming community. At the beginning of the road is an orientation table and you can also purchase a booklet that details the log cabins, mills and churches you'll discover along the way.
