One of the unique ways to celebrate Christmas in the Smoky Mountains is to take a holiday themed trolley or train ride! This a fun way to get into the spirit of the season while enjoying the beautiful winter scenery of the Smokies. The really great news is that these rides are just a short drive from our cabins in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge! Get into the spirit on these two holiday themed rides during your Christmas in the Smoky Mountains:
About the Ride
The Gatlinburg Winter Magic Trolley Ride of Lights takes guests on a fun ride through the breathtaking Gatlinburg Winter Magic light displays. While you can also take a self guided driving tour of the lights, there is nothing better than kicking back in the heated comfort of a Gatlinburg Trolley to enjoy all of the displays! These include $1.6 million of custom designed and fabricated lighting displays that represent animals indigenous to Great Smoky Mountains National Park as well as traditional holiday scenes.
Dates, Times and Location
The Gatlinburg Winter Magic Trolley Ride of Lights runs from now until the end of January, so there is plenty of time to enjoy the displays before and after Christmas! The trolleys depart each evening at 6:30pm, 730pm and 8:30pm from the Gatlinburg Mass Transit Center on 88 River Road, Gatlinburg, TN 37738. Note that all trolleys take the same route so there is no difference between each departure time.
Pricing Information
The Gatlinburg Winter Magic Trolley Ride of Lights is only $5.00 per person, making it one of the top bargains in town! Children under 3 are admitted for free as long as they are sitting on an adult’s lap.
About the Ride
For another one of the fun ways to celebrate Christmas in the Smoky Mountains, take a 20 minute train excursion on the Dollywood Express!
