The Southern Mountains are dominated by the Great Smoky Mountains National Park where outdoor activities and scenic beauty are just another Appalachian day. Hike the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. About 370 miles of it runs through North Carolina along the Tennessee border. Go rafting on the whitewater rapids of the Nantahala River Gorge or bring your skis for wintry fun. Visit Cherokee and learn about Native American culture and history.
