Conselhos sobre a cidade
Deslocar-se
Cell service unavailable in some mountain areas
Download needed information such as travel directions before leaving the house or bring a hard copy of info because many areas in these mountains like the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Smoky Mountain National Park do not have cell service.
Deslocar-se
Some GPS instructions in the mountains may be inaccurate
When leaving the neighborhood at Little Mountain Road, only turn right (downhill). Going left on Eagles Nest Road leads to an inaccessible gated area, not to Maggie Valley. This may be true for other areas as well.
O que levar
Bring layered clothing and accessories
Year-round, evenings and higher elevation areas like on the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Smoky Mountain National Park, are always cooler, sometimes 10-15 degrees cooler. Bring layers, and hats & mittens in cooler weather.
