🍂 Fall foliage timing is everything—and we’ve got the ultimate front-row seat!
Located right next to The Cherohala Skyway, we’re in the sweet spot for autumn views. Why? Well, this 43-mile scenic drive climbs from 1,000 feet in Tellico Plains to over 5,300 feet near Santeetlah Gap, the colors don't just pop—they roll across the mountains over the span of a few weeks!
Higher elevations peak first, while lower gaps follow right behind. That means you get a wide, flexible window from October through early November (typically) to catch vibrant, peak red and gold hues along the ride!
Planning a drive or a hike along the Skyway this fall?
