Dollywood in Pigeon Forge TNFor years, families and groups have traveled from all across the United States to visit Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. This theme park has something for everyone. While there are many theme parks around the country, Dollywood is different. The designers of the park made good use of its Smoky Mountain setting. At Dollywood you can get chills by riding their thrilling roller coasters up to 70 mph with 128-foot drops. Breathtaking is the perfect word to describe the Tennessee Tornado, a fast roller coaster which goes up a mountain incline, twisting and turning through the beautiful Smoky Mountain landscape. It is "the world's only mountain-top, spiro-loop, tunnel drop, 65 mph, triple-loop coaster." In honor of Dolly, the Tennessee Tornado takes shape of a butterfly. It actually goes through the side of a mountain, and it is one of the most unique experiences in the world. While the scenery may be breathtaking, Daredevil Falls is a thrill that will absolutely take your breath away. Carved out of the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, Daredevil Falls starts with an exploration of waterways in search of an abandoned logging camp. The ride takes a thrilling twist when riders encounter a 63 mph free fall over America's highest, fastest waterfall ride. At Dollywood you can have fun with the kids as you enjoy classics like bumper cars and carousels or take an adventure through America's largest interactive tree house.
