Gatlinburg Tennessee during June
There is always something going on in
Gatlinburg Tennessee and the month of June is no
exception. The weather is getting comfortable and summer
has begun. The quieter time for this Tennessee town is
during the first two weeks of the month, although many
other activities make this time perfect for a visit.
June picks up at the end of the month with many fun
family orientated activities and shows. Gatlinburg comes
alive with Smoky Mountain Tunes and Tales, Dukefest,
acts and performances on the streets, etc. June is a
time to visit Gatlinburg when everything is going on and
nothing is boring.
Weather is amazing during June with the highs being
around 85 degrees and lows around 55 degrees. Cool to
moderate temperatures at night and moderate to warm
during the day. With this perfect weather you and your
travel partners can enjoy more of the outdoor side of
Gatlinburg. Plenty of places for hiking, golfing, fly
fishing, riding bikes, rafting, horseback riding and so
much more. Gatlinburg is alive with things going on
during the days and also at nights. For those few days
that rain puts a damper on your plans, and you choose
not to stay inside one of our Gatlinburg cabins, don’t
forget that there are plenty of inside activities such
as putt putt, shopping,
hiking, ice skating, arcades, karaoke and more.
Springfest is still in full swing until June 10th.
If you didn’t know, Springfest is when Gatlinburg
Tennessee has flowers displayed everywhere and many
Springtime activities going on. Walking down the
streets you will be serenaded by the locals. Springfest
is filled with delicious food for you to taste and
enjoy. Springfest also has stories and history
descriptions of the small city we love so much. If you
love food, flowers and are an avid nature lover then
visiting Gatlinburg during Springfest is the perfect
idea for you.
Starting on June 8th Smoky Mountain Tales and Tunes will
be alive in Gatlinburg, TN. Storytellers and performers
are brought into the Parkway in Gatlinburg by horse
carriage. The sidewalks become the stages to many
storytellers. This fun and interactive activity gets you
up close and personal with performers and storytellers
that take you back in time to the beginning of the Smoky
Mountain history. From 5:30-10:00 each day for 84 days
14 acts/tales will be done. Listen to the stories, songs
or fables of the Smoky Mountains. Don’t be afraid to
interact because audience participation is encouraged.
CMT’s Dukefest is scheduled for Sunday June 8th this
year. It’s held at Cooter’s Place and Store in
Gatlinburg, TN. Many of the characters from the show
will be in attendance to sign autographs and take
pictures so bring your cameras for this memorable event.
Bring out those classic cars and put on your Daisy Dukes
because this Dukefest is an event you can not miss. The
2008 Dukefest also helps terminally ill children so feel
wonderful about helping out children.
If you’re a history buff then you should visit
Gatlinburg between June 13-15. Local performers put on a
reenactment of the “Battle of Burg Hill” at Mills Park.
They act out the Civil War camp along with historical
portrayals, cannon drills and music. This activity is a
must see for everyone and even the children in your
family will enjoy this Civil War reenactment. This event
helps you understand even more about the war that took
place so long ago. It takes you back in time and throws
you into history as you truly become thankful for the
freedom that has been given to us.
Ride the Gatlinburg Trolley system for a grand tour of
Gatlinburg. This system is the 5th largest mass transit
in Tennessee. With different routes to take you could
make an all day journey out of just riding trolleys.
Several days in June a trolley will actually take you to
the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Go later in the
afternoon and see a natural light show by the fireflies.
June in Gatlinburg Tennessee is one of the busiest
months out of the year. The weather is warm, the
children have a break from school so get together and
plan and family trip to enjoy everything Gatlinburg,
Tennessee has to offer. Don’t forget that if you are in
need of renting a cabin, browse through all our
Gatlinburg cabins. Remember, it is very
important that you search and find a cabin quickly,
because they book fast. |
