Wife and I are heading there for the first time next Friday for a long weekend. We normally carry our bikes with us but wasn't sure if this park is big enough to bother. So my question to anyone that has been there, is it big enough to ride around on the bikes? Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for the quick replies. Sounds like the bikes stay at home this time around.

I have never stayed at that park, but I sure wouldn't be caught riding a bike IN Gatlinburg!! It's pretty awful trying to drive a car without getting run over.

Take your bikes and go Saturday early morning to Cades Cove and do the 11mile loop.

I've seen a lot of bikers in the area but they're always on the SIDEWALKS. Some even risk their necks riding over the Smokies to Carolina. If you're an experienced rider you could probably bike OK in G'bg and PF but you'd better be careful; and wear your helmet.

Might wanna tell them how long the loops are.
