Suggested August Activities

During August, you can expect lots of beautiful, warm weather in the Smokies, so it’s the perfect time to experience these stunning mountains. From hiking to whitewater rafting, there are tons of things to experience, but here are some favorite activities to enjoy during the month of August in Pigeon Forge.

  • Rafting On The Little Pigeon River - Regularly scheduled dam releases during this season make it the perfect time to raft on this scenic river.
  • Waterfall Hikes - The mountains can get hot in August, but luckily mother nature provides its own air conditioning: waterfalls! Some excellent waterfall hikes to enjoy in the Smokies are the Abrams Falls Trail, The Middle Prong Trail, The Ramsey Cascades Trail, and the Meigs Creek Trail.
  • Dollywood Splash Country - Dollywood’s world-class water park is open for the entire month of August, so it’s the perfect way to cool off on a warm day in the Smokies.
  • Enjoy Beautiful Views From Clingman’s Dome - While you can find lots of warm weather in the valley of Pigeon Forge, the air is much cooler high in the mountains. If you want to cool off and see an incredible panoramic view, go explore the Clingman’s Dome area of the Smokies.

The scenery is always impressive and there are some beautiful wildflowers that are in full bloom during this beautiful time of year.

Final Thoughts

With plenty of warm, sunny, and dry weather, late summer in the Smoky Mountains is a pleasant time of year to visit. Be sure to plan going swimming in the national park or spending a day at Dollywood Splash Country to stay cool during your Pigeon Forge cabin vacation. Also, booking a cabin with a swimming pool is a popular option this time of year. Lastly, Pigeon Forge is in full swing in August, so you'll have no shortage of fun attractions and outdoor activities to enjoy like whitewater rafting, horseback riding, and ATV tours.
