Looking for a way to introduce your kids to hiking? See the world from a child's perspective. Walking for the sake of walking can be a strange concept for kids. We stand to learn more from simply observing our children exploring nature than we could by hiking a thousand mindless miles. So get your children outside and enjoy their unencumbered delight in exploration.
Safety is always a concern when hiking with children. While you won't need any specialized equipment to enjoy these hikes, it is always smart to take enough water and snacks for everyone. Wear sturdy footwear to make the hike more enjoyable and dress in warm layers on colder days. Please remember to be respectful and do your part to preserve these areas because they are wonderful pieces of Smoky Mountain history. Please do not move any objects you find, and leave all plants undisturbed.
