Keep the Smokies safe and wild! Park Ranger Jackson wants to remind you to keep your distance when viewing elk or other wildlife in GSMNP. Using the “Rule of Thumb” is a great way to make sure you are a safe distance away.
The annual synchronous firefly viewing opportunity at Elkmont is from June 3–10. Apply for the limited viewing opportunity by entering a lottery—open April 26–29—at recreation.gov/ticket/facilit…. Learn more: nps.gov/grsm/learn/nat… Photo courtesy of Radim Schreiber | FireflyExperience
The pollinators in the park, including this West Virginia white butterfly (Pieris virginiensis), are enjoying a feast. Come check out the beautiful flowering plants all throughout the Smokies! Remember to leave no trace and continue to protect our biodiverse ecosystems.
Adaptive programs at the Smokies are expanding! This year's lineup includes three opportunities for hiking, two for biking, one for kayaking and one overnight camping trip. Read more at nps.gov/grsm/learn/new… and register at catalystsports.org/great-smoky-mo….
Would you like to volunteer with the adaptive programs in #GSMNP? Join us for Accessibility Awareness and Adaptive Equipment Training this Sat. 4/20 from 10-12:30 at Sugarlands Visitor Center, near Gatlinburg. To register to volunteer, please contact [email protected].
Name that flower! I am a perennial wildflower that typically blooms in April in GSMNP. I have a range that spans from Canada to Georgia. I have 3 big white petals that may turn pink with age. Despite my appealing look, my flower is odorless.
Stay 50 yards away from wildlife. Follow the speed limit to avoid killing wildlife. Respect their distance. If you wish to take a photo remain inside your car and do not block traffic. NPS Photo Image description: Two black bears, a sow and her cub, in a tree.
One of the 1st trees to flower in GSMNP is the Eastern Redbud. This species is one of the first food sources for many types of wildlife in the spring. Keep an eye out for its bright, purple-colored flowers; you can’t miss it.
When visiting the park please be mindful of the traffic congestion and consider arriving before 9 am or after 3 pm. Please remember to only park in designated spaces, consider a shuttle, have alternate park destinations in mind, and be patient during this popular time.
As flowers bloom in GSMNP, please remember to let them thrive! Leaving flowers be and parking in designated pull-offs/parking spots instead of on the grass is a great way to help our ecosystems flourish and protect our wonderful wildflowers. Photo Credits: Kenzie Connor
Trilliums are blooming across Great Smoky Mountains National Park! Can you spot their unique speckled leaves? This genus is defined by its multiples of three- from the leaves and petals to the pistils and stamens. #SpringHasSprung Photo Credit: Warren Bielenberg
Current road closures as of 8:30 AM: US 441/Newfound Gap Road Cherokee Orchard Road at the Park boundary Tremont Road Greenbrier Road at the Ranger Station Little River Road Laurel Creek Road Gatlinburg Bypass
Looking to get away from the crowds? Check out Big Creek, an area of the park near Cosby. Walk the first two miles of Big Creek Trail to reach Mouse Creek Falls, pictured above. The campground and picnic area open on March 29, but the trails are available year-round!
Did you know that wild turkeys can have different color phases? The smoke color phase, also called leucism, can be found in wild turkeys in the park. Leucism is the partial loss of pigment in an animal, causing it to appear whiter. Photo Credit: Kenzie Connor
Phenology, the study of the seasonal changes in the life cycles of trees and plants, is one way to determine when spring has arrived at the park! Collected over time, observations about cyclical changes give us a great look at long-term trends. #HappyFirstDayofSpring
The Red Burrowing Crayfish (Cambarus carolinus) is 1/11 species of crayfish the lives in GRSM. This crayfish lives its life beneath a small tower of mud called a castle, where it keeps a small pocket of water to be able to live on the land where many other crayfish cannot.
Signs of Spring, celebrating National American Sign Language Day, is back in Cades Cove on Saturday, April 13, 2024 from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. This year's event will have an all-new theme? Can you guess what is it from the photo?
Butterfly or Moth? Here are some clues: 🦋 A butterfly hold its wings together above its body. A moth holds its wings in a tent-like fashion over its body 🐛Butterflies have thin antennae with club-like tips. Moths can have feathery, comb-like antennae 📸Warren Bielenberg
Commonly known as the question mark, Polygonia interrogationis gets its name from the distinctive silver mark on the underside of its hindwings. NPS photo: A butterfly with orange and black spotted wings; irregular shaped with jagged edges and a short tail.
Spring is coming! It’s time to highlight a special critter. The Spring Salamander is 1/31 salamander species in the park and can grow up to 7 in. long. If you see a salamander, remember not to touch. Substances on our hands are harmful to salamanders.

@GreatSmokyNPS I didn't know that ? Thanks for explaining. Love the beautiful scenery Tennessee has to offer
"Why are all your trees dead?" At the park, we have deciduous trees and conifer trees. Deciduous trees lose their leaves in the fall, but they are very much alive, so please don't break their branches off. The green trees you see are evergreen cone-bearing seed plants (conifers).
@GreatSmokyNPS Two weeks ago when my 81 year old mom and I walked up the Clingmfan’s Dome. We’ve done it several times together over the years and every year is special.
@GreatSmokyNPS Loved our hike to these falls (July 2018)!
@GreatSmokyNPS My wife and I got married on the 10th and spent the majority of our honeymoon hiking trails in the park! Abrams and Alumn Cave were our favorites!
@GreatSmokyNPS I hiked out there last week on car-free Wednesday and there wasn’t another soul there. Definitely the best way to see it!
