      Great little road with lots of history, right off Bryson city. Read the history before you go on the road and you will realize why they call it the Road to Nowhere. They also have hiking trails at the end of the road.

      You have to know the history to appreciate this dead end. Otherwise it's is just an unfinished road with a tunnel that drips. I had heard about it all through college but never made it over there. After a long car ride, it was a good place to get the kids out and walk around. My son was scared of the tunnel at first but once we were through, he enjoyed climbing on the rocks. My daughter burnt some energy off before riding the train. It was overcast and foggy the day we went but that just leant to the coolness of the area. Hopefully will be back to explore other hiking trails in the area.http://www.westernncattractions.com/the-road-to-nowhere/

      I agree with others that you really need to read the history on the Road to Nowhere. So interesting! I drove this road on Halloween day. The road just comes to an end and there is a small parking area. You walk about 100 yards to the entrance of the tunnel. I won't lie...the tunnel is kind of creepy. It is very long and completely dark when you get away from the opening on either end. I was there all by myself on Halloween evening while a snow storm was brewing. Kind of creepy, but I'm sure it's not like that all the time. It was definitely beautiful with all the fall color at peak especially on the far side of the tunnel. This is where the 35 mile long Lakeshore Trail begins which goes all the way to Fontana Dam. There are several great views of Fontana Lake on this drive.

      You should read the history behind the road first before driving it, There is alot of history about the area before the dam was built.

      It was a nice crisp walk and the tunnel was very interesting. At the end the road tuns into a trail that connects to one that runs the 33 mile length of the trail.

      There are beautiful views of Fontana Lake on the drive up. This is a popular place for horseback riding so you may want a flashlight for the tunnel. The tunnel is quite dark. We hiked for a bit on the trails beyond the tunnel. Pretty but no views. We encountered very few people while there which was very nice.

      We've heard about the Road to Nowhere for years, but no one would tell us how to get there. Luckily, a little searching online this year, and we found it. It's a beautiful drive into the Park. You will come to a pull off/parking area on the right (you won't be able to continue by car), and you continue on foot through a long, dark tunnel. Flashlights and boots or sneakers are recommended. I will admit, the tunnel was a but eerie, but there is plenty of light at both ends. Past the tunnel, the road suddenly stops and continues on as hiking trails into the park. We weren't prepared for a lengthy hike this time, but we are already planning on hiking further past the tunnel next time we are there. Highly recommended, but please respect it. There is graffiti in the tunnel, and it's sad to see how people could care less about such a great piece of Smoky Mountain history. I hope one day they are able to rid the tunnel of the graffiti.

      I like seeing the less popular areas of the Smoky Mountains. Also, I feel like a broken record in my reviews, but we travel with our dog. Although pets are not allowed on the trails, I appreciate that they are allowed in many areas including a stroll through the tunnel and surrounding area. I think it is worth the ride up there and if you don't have a pet, you can explore the trails more than we could.

      This place is very, very, very, cool. The floor in the tunnel is very muddy. Wear sneakers (or tennis shoes). Overall: Worth it!
