Looking for something adventurous and exciting to do as a family or a group this year? Take a trip back in time where you can slow down, enjoy, and experience a 30 to 45 minutes picturesque horse-pulled carriage ride through mountainous forest of Cades Cove. Our knowledgeable carriage guides will entertain you with tales of the history of the area while showing and describing the native plant and animal life. Meet our beautiful carriage horses and learn how things were done in days gone by. Come discover the old Cades Cove; you might just discover yourself in the meantime.
Carriages rides depart continually throughout the day have no weight or age limit. However, we do limit the carriage to 6 passengers and that depends on the passenger's size.
Due to the popularity of the Guided Carriage rides, reservations will not be accepted. All rides are subject to weather and trail conditions.
The National Park Service, Department of the Interior authorizes National and State Park Concessions Riding Stables, Inc., to serve the public in Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
