Mount Cammerer and Cosby Nature Trail - Gatlinburg Tennessee Hikes

This hike provides the shortest route to the Mt. Cammerer Lookout, a restored 1930s fire tower on the rocky summit of Mt. Cammerer. The panoramic view from the lookout is spectacular at any time, but if you can make this hike in mid-October when the autumn foliage peaks, you’ll have a hard time pulling yourself away. Highlights: Terrific views.
