About This Route

TEMPORARILY CLOSED DUE TO IMPACTS FROM HURRICANE HELENE

This rollercoaster of a ride takes you through an incredibly historic rural landscape, with a stunning backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains. The route begins at David Crockett Birthplace State Park, known as the birthplace of legendary Tennessee frontiersman Davy Crockett, and features East Tennessee's typical rolling terrain. While the climbs may be short, their frequency adds a challenge paired with fun descents that offer cyclists a chance to settle into a rythym while exploring the area. The state park is situated along the Nolichucky River, offering river rentals, camping and interpretive exhibits - you can even purchase your own Davy Crockett-style raccoon hat!

The Real Seal

In a world where millions of AI-generated photos are created every day, travelers can’t always tell what’s real anymore. But we’ve made a commitment to never use AI-generated pictures to represent our destinations. Every place we show is real. And to prove it, we created a certified mark for our photography that verifies its authenticity.

Every original photo submitted is analyzed to confirm it’s real, not AI-generated. Once verified, each picture receives content credentials and secure metadata showing who captured it, when it was taken and what camera was used.

Some basic retouching can still be part of a certified photo, but only when it helps to better reflect what was already there.

The Tennessee Real Seal sets a new standard for travel content that people can trust. So even when the landscape looks too beautiful to be true, you know it didn’t come from a prompt. It’s a real place in Tennessee, waiting for you to explore.
