To be sure, Tennessee's history
is rich and diverse. Historic sites,
trails, music, crafts and the arts
paint a picture of a colorful state
that has seen two centuries of
statehood. And to showcase that
rich history, the Tennessee
Heritage Trail has been recently
developed by the State in order
to highlight the cultural heritage
of our people, and numerous
Gatlinburg-area locations have
been designated as integral
stops along the Trail.
The Arts & Crafts Trail pathway
will show you folk art, trolls,
candles of all descriptions,
hand-made pottery, oak and
willow baskets, watercolors,
sculpture and lithographs. The
History Trail pathway will allow
you to discover the people and
events that made Tennessee
what it is today.
