Things to Do in Cherokee

For a small town, Cherokee is sure big on adventure!  During your visit to Cherokee, you’ll have no shortage of attractions to keep you occupied during your Smoky Mountain getaway.

You’ll be able to hop on board the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and view the beauty of the Smoky Mountains through the window of a train.  If simply riding the rails is not enough, you can check out the intricate details featured in the Smoky Mountain Model Railroad Museum.

If you’re more the outdoors type, you can brave the rapids of the Nantahala River or go fishing at the Cooper Creek Trout Farm.  The stories of the Appalachians come alive through the words of master storytellers at the Storytelling Center of the Southern Appalachians.

You can even stop in and pick a little bit with the folks at Grampa’s Mountain Music or Gernandt Stringed Instruments. So cross on over into Cherokee, North Carolina, and be prepared to experience a real Smoky Mountain adventure! Below is a list of attractions in Cherokee:
