Description: Clingman’s Dome may be the highest peak in the Park, but Mt. Leconte is widely considered the highest and most spectacular mountain. Experience it all. On this tour, for instance, we will climb through a rock, travel through an old growth forest, pass breathtaking vistas of Anakeesta formations and explore the powerful force of water as we make our way to the top! During this time, we will pause at a gorgeous overlook where the fastest animal in the world, the peregrine falcon, has made it’s home. You’ll get to visit the famous LeConte Lodge and observe some of the most famous views in the Park. Lastly, before heading back down the mountain, we will lunch on a point overlooking Gatlinburg.
