$160-$170

All aboard the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad for a front-row view of some of the most pristine rivers, tremendous trestles and remarkable historic structures hidden throughout the Great Smoky Mountains and Nantahala National Forest during peak fall foliage season!

LEAF PEEPING SEASON is right around the corner and there is no better way to enjoy the mesmerizing, kaleidoscope of colors along the ridges of the Great Smoky Mountains than aboard a nostalgic passenger train.

You will have the choice of the Coach+ train car, climate-controlled passenger cars with large picture windows for your viewing pleasure.

Or you can enjoy a gentle breeze carrying the scent of fallen leaves on one of the open-air gondolas.
