When traveling from the North and West, I-40 East to exit 407 is the shortest and most traveled route into the Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg area. Although this is the easiest route during the winter and early spring months, during the
busier times of the year, summer months, car shows and the fall color change in October highway traffic in the Smokies can be bumper to bumper, especially along the primary routes of Highways 66 and 441 leading into Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Take these less-traveled and more scenic routes to Gatlinburg and
Pigeon Forge... it maybe a little bit further, but can easily save you hours in traffic congestion and frustration. The following alternate directions should help you avoid the traffic on your way to your relaxing American Patriot
