Blog Home : Category Posts : Top Tips for a Fun-Filled Pigeon Forge Vacation with Teens

Discover the top tips and attractions to entertain everyone on your next Pigeon Forge vacation with teens, from rollercoasters to relaxing cabins. With some planning and the right vacation tips for traveling with teens, your Pigeon Forge trip can be exciting and stress-free. Stick with us and learn all about the fun things to do in Pigeon Forge with teens to keep everyone entertained from start to finish.

Top Attractions for Teens in Pigeon Forge

If there is one thing Pigeon Forge is known for, it's the attractions. While many are kid-friendly, you'd be surprised how many Pigeon Forge teen-friendly attractions exist in town. Below, you'll find the best Pigeon Forge activities and attractions for teenagers.

Spend the Day at Dollywood

One attraction that most everyone enjoys while on vacation in Pigeon Forge is Dollywood. First on the list of reasons why is the number of thrilling rollercoasters offered at Dollywood. Some favorites that will excite everyone include:

  • Lightning Rod
  • Wild Eagle
  • Daredevil Falls
  • and More!

In addition to fun rides, there are dozens of shops, snacks, and photo opportunities spread throughout the park, letting your teen(s) enjoy plenty of ways to keep busy. The best part about visiting Dollywood is that everything in the park is contained, meaning you can do something you prefer while they run off to do something else.

Alternatively, you can make the day a family adventure, making it one of the best Pigeon Forge family vacation ideas possible. No matter your choice, you'll have it all when visiting Dollywood.

Pro Tip: If visiting in summer, add Dollywood's Splash Country to your plans so everyone has fun while staying cool in the summer heat.

Explore the Island in Pigeon Forge

Do you like attractions that offer a bit of everything so no two experiences are the same? You'll love visiting the Island, and so will your teens. The Island sits in the heart of Pigeon Forge off the Parkway, making it extremely accessible for those staying in a Pigeon Forge cabin rental.

During your visit, everyone in the group will enjoy access to:

  • Dining Options
  • Shopping Options
  • Live Music
  • Fun Activities

The Great Smoky Mountain Wheel lets you sit high in the sky to see stunning views when not running around at full speed. Alternatively, you can swing by the dancing show fountain if that's more your speed.

Last time we visited, a surprise event happened, so you never know what adventure might occur when it's your turn.

Pro Tip: With so many options, you can easily enjoy a date night with your sweetie while the kids run around and explore, giving you the best of both worlds.

Hit Up Downtown Flavortown

Technically, this option combines attraction and activity, but Downtown Flavortown is a perfect Pigeon Forge attraction for older kids. During your visit, everyone will enjoy access to killer food, a tiki bar (for the adults), dozens of arcade games, and even duckpin bowling.

If you want to feed everyone and make sure the entertainment level stays high, this is a must-visit destination while on vacation in Pigeon Forge.

Go Full-Throttle at Xtreme Racing Center

Does your teen like going fast and want to be behind the wheel? Add Xtreme Racing Center to your travel plans and experience the fastest go-karts in Pigeon Forge. Three race tracks are available, each with hairpin turns, challenges, and more. One way or another, you'll all feel the need for speed, and trust us, your teens won't stop talking about this activity.

Pump the Adrenaline at Wildside Adventure Park

One of the best ways to combine fun with pure thrills for your teens is to visit Wildside in Pigeon Forge. This outdoor adventure park offers three incredible things to do for those who want to go fast or see incredible sights:

  • The Longest Zipline: Soar through the trees across 5,7771 feet at speeds of 55mph on the longest zipline in the country. Pure speed awaits.
  • Off-Roading: Get off the road and hit the trail in a rugged off-road UTV that goes fast! 18 years and older can drive while everyone can ride. You'll see gorgeous views while cruising.
  • Mountain Biking: Those who are more physically active will love the mountain bike trails designed for every skill level. Hit the curves and jumps or enjoy an easy ride amongst the scenery.

Note: You can bring your bike if preferred, but Wildside offers bike rentals for those without a bike.

Enjoy Nature at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Close to Pigeon Forge is the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. No visit to the Smokies is considered complete without at least swinging by for a visit. However, did you know there are lots of options at the park sure to satisfy everyone, such as:

  • Hiking
  • Fishing
  • Horseback Riding
  • Tour Cades Cove

The best part about visiting the national park is how easy it is to customize your visit to what everyone in the group wants for one of the most satisfying family things to do in Pigeon Forge with teenagers.

Why Your Cabin Stay Matters (Especially with Teens)

While there's a lot of excitement to enjoy in Pigeon Forge (and we didn't even cover most of it), there's something to be said about an authentic cabin experience while on vacation.

If you want the perfect rental cabin that will keep everyone happy, consider the important amenities. We offer many game room cabins and cabins with a theater room, perfect for indulging in friendly competition or enjoying low-key entertainment.

Besides extra fun, you can't go wrong with embracing the relaxing aspects of a cabin stay. Your teen will love staying in a rental cabin with a private pool or a hot tub cabin rental. When in doubt, a mountain view vacation cabin adds an extra touch to the vacation.
