Experience the magic in the mountains at Anakeesta, Gatlinburg’s #1 attraction. You’ll find a variety of exciting outdoor activities that all ages will enjoy. Admission to the park includes all day access meaning you can enter and exit the park at your leisure. This also means unlimited rides on our new chair lift! When planning a day at Anakeesta four hours of time is the minimum recommended to enjoy what is included in general admission. The experience starts with a ride on either the Gondola or Ridge Rambler up to a mountaintop adventure. Included in general admission guests will get to explore four different playground and adventure courses for all ages, walk among the trees on the 14-bridge TreeTop SkyWalk, climb to the top of the AnaVista Tower to get 360-degree views of the mountains, explore the botanical garden and enjoy family friendly live entertainment at two stages. Relax in the many rocking chairs with scenic views and enjoy many unique shopping and dining options with seven retail stores and seven dining options.
There’s additional fun on the mountain that can be added-on with mountain coaster rides, ziplining and the award-winning Astra Lumina enchanted night walk. The add-on activities can add an extra 1-2 hours per activity to your itinerary. Your adventure awaits!
