If you are coming to Gatlinburg Tennessee and looking for a chairlift ride up the mountains we hope this tour video helps of the Gatlinburg SkyPark! What menu item would you like to try at their NEW Smoky Mountain Smash Restaurant the most? 🍔
I have family in the Knoxville area, and, at one time, one of my family members lived in Serville. I love the Gatlinburg area, and it offers so much for any taste. Thank you for the cool look of the SkyPark.
Thanks for the update Ryan.....I love the chair lift to Anakeesta....but have not got brave enough to do this one to Skypark/bridge...lol....one day maybe..lol I do love the views here you are showing more than Anakeesta.
Have been up there several times but was very curious about the area built on the other side of the Skybridge & that walk path that goes all the way down! Looks like the outside seating area over there is bigger than on the main side?! That walk path down was interesting. Enjoyed the update ☺️. 🫎
It was neat seeing the walking trail going down, since I wouldn't be able to see it otherwise. It would be scary if you ran into a bear on the trail though. With that thought, I'd opt to take the chair lift down.
Heading back to Gatlinburg from St. Augustine, Florida on New Years Day. Can’t wait to go up to the Sky Park since we have never been and it looks amazing. Was kind of disappointed though, I’m a police officer and the discount is $2 a person. Not really sure what kind of a discount $2 is when the price is $41. Doesn’t make any sense to me.
Just curious to know how your apprehension of heights affected you as a firefighter. I have a great fear of heights myself. You just gave me a grand tour of something I woukd never have seen otherwise! I live in the Piedmont region of NC and have cousins in the mountains of NC that I haven't seen in decades because of my fear and the fact that we are all elderly now and some of us can't travel much anymore. I love your content! You have a sweet family.
As I mention at the 4:00 mark in the video, it isn't heights that have ever bothered me rather feeling trapped (I have been on a chairlift that stopped for a LONG time, and started to panic). I could be up on high ladders/buildings with no issue. I ended up in some tough situations as a firefighter/paramedic and afterwards starting battling panic attacks/feeling trapped as I never previously did. We are glad you enjoy virtually joining us on our videos! 😁
Are they able to stop the chairlift for people to get on and off like they can at skyland ranch? Are they open in February? We loved skyland ranch last February. Would you recommend annakesta or the skypark more for a visit in February?
Yes, they are able to assist as we mention at 3:10 in the video. As far as Anakeesta vs SkyPark we recommend both if possible. If one has kids/grandkids the different playgrounds & mountain coasters that Anakeesta has will give them a bit more to do. But the glass bottom bridge is very unique to Gatlinburg SkyPark that all ages can enjoy (or be terrified crossing) 😁

We came down from PA in April and one stop was here. It was an experience I'm glad we had.
@ Gatlinburg SkyPark & SkyBridge have some fantastic views!
A delicious hamburger just a plain one

If you can do Anakeesta’s chairlift, the SkyPark chairlift will be easy!
Thank you very informative.

Love Sky Park! I’d have to try the Elk Burger at the new restaurant. The seating around the restaurant looks so nice. Thanks for another video!
Our pleasure!

Wow 😯 add new areas and love views of downtown Gatlinburg ❤❤❤
Oh no I not like thin trails made me nervous 😬 not want fall hurt.
Thank you Ryan.
The path is not too bad, especially after doing Mt. Leconte.

I'm not too worried about Black Bears when we go hiking. As long as we keep our distance they will keep theirs.

We've been waiting on this post. The last time we were there, the skypark was completely shut down with construction. Missed the family this time😢
They were busy finishing up school for the year. I'll try to bring them up on a future vlog (Micah & Hannah have never been here).
We are out here now in Gatlinburg and it’s very busy. Going to Anakeesta on 12/22/24 amazing
It will be busy for the rest of the year now that school is out. Have a great time!
Could you tell me what brand of cap you're wearing?
Is it warm?
I mainly wear Columbia hats as they are one of the very few that actually fit comfortably for my big head. It doesn't do much as far as warmth.
@AdventureIsOutThere Thank you and I Really appreciate all of your videos...feel like I'm there enjoying the sights! Thank you brother!
I like the old version of the skylift lower station. But then again, I like nostalgic things. Gatlinburg is becoming too commercialized and crowded.
There is lots of nostalgic photos within the new ticket center & along the skytrail to enjoy!
Someone told me it cost extra to go across the bridge after you get up there is that true
No, the SkyBridge is included with your SkyPark ticket.

Can you walk up the trail and not have to pay?
There is a no trespassing sign. It’s for customers only.
