Cataloochee Valley

Mountain Road, Cataloochee Valley, Great Smoky Mountains National Park,

(Velvia slide film)



Cataloochee Valley is a hidden gem in the Smoky Mountains. Not nearly as crowded as Cades Cove, the valley is less traveled because of its more remote access. But the natural beauty is self evident. Even during the busy visitation which the park receives in autumn, Cataloochee can feel quiet and secluded.
