SUMMER- June to August
Hot, humid conditions and temperatures can reach 90 degrees. Hiking shoes, a hat, water proof jacket and sun screen are good items to pack for a visit to the Great Smoky Mountains. June, July and August have the highest amount of precipitation throughout the year averaging at 5.4 inches/month. Always bring layers because the wide range in elevation may make you want to shed or add a layer unexpectedly.

FALL- September to November
Arguably the most beautiful season of the Great Smoky Mountains is during the fall months where there are warm days and cool nights. Temperatures range from 50-80 degrees, and the magnificent forests are covered in a stunning blanket of yellow, red, and orange.
