Getting in Touch with Nature in Gatlinburg, TN

Get back in touch with nature as spring brings us outdoors. There is no place like Gatlinburg, TN to start that journey. Activities like the Parrot Mountain and Tropical Bird Sanctuary give you a chance to commune with nature. This exciting sanctuary gives you and your children the chance to see beautifully colored, exotic species of birds in a tropical, rainforest setting much like the natural habitat these birds are indigenous to. There is even a place in the park where you will be allowed to feed the baby birds.

After your encounter with tropical birds, see more exotic rainforest animals at the Rainforest Adventures Discovery Zoo. This zoo has hundreds of exciting animals and sights for you to see. See a 25 foot indoor waterfall at the zoo as well as replicas of ancient ruins. Ring-tailed lemurs, venomous snakes, and other beautiful creatures are just inside the doors and waiting for you to come discover them.

For your final nature adventure, Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies offers you some really exciting thrills and unique features. Aside from seeing over 10,000 aquatic animals from over 350 different species, this aquarium has incredible displays to see them in. Your wonder over a tiger shark or sting ray will only be increased by seeing them in glass aquariums that feature them in unique ways.
