Where Every Trail Tells a Story

This blog post is for trip planners, mom‘s looking to rent or do a tour on ATV or UTV how it applies to you and your vacation.

From Winter Magic lights and the Christmas parade to Ober Mountain and UTV rides in the Smokies, here’s what Christmas in Gatlinburg 2025 really looks like once you’re there.

Thinking about a Can-Am Side-by-Side? Before you drop thousands, here’s what to look at: models, terrain, seating, and real-world performance.

New to the Smoky Mountains or planning to explore by UTV? These Gatlinburg UTV trails are the best way to see more of the area on your own schedule, no guide required. Every route below is street-legal and open to the public, from mountain roads and riverside stretches to quieter backroads and iconic national park drives. Here are the best-known UTV trails near Gatlinburg, plus a few exclusive routes of our own if you rent a UTV with us.

Riding in a car, SUV, or a truck takes away from the experience (sound dampening, limited visibility, and etc.). I’d like to add, the scenery the entire way to Cades Cove is beautiful and the drive out is just as pretty as the drive in Cades Cove. This is why a UTV is a must.

If you are looking to make the most of your time in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, TN – or if you would like to rent a street-legal UTV while you’re in the area – use this blog post as a guide to have an original experience and a trip like no other 🙂
