Swain County Chamber of Commerce

A visit to Bryson City will take you back to a simpler, less-complicated time. Yet you'll have lots to do in the Swain County area of Western North Carolina. We're home to much of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, including its highest peak, Clingmans Dome. We have the Nantahala River, one of the nation's most popular whitewater venues, and beautiful Fontana Lake with the highest dam east of the Rockies. Your Smoky Mountain vacation can include shopping, sightseeing or just strolling along Deep Creek with its three crystal waterfalls. And Bryson City's central location offers an endless array of day-trips.
