Great Smoky Mountains National Park
TRAIL TO OBSERVATION TOWER ON CLINGMAN'S DOME: This trail leads to the summit of Clingman's Dome, the highest mountain in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Length of the trail is slightly over 1/2/ mile (2950 ft.); you gain approximately 330 ft. in altitude in that distance. On the summit, partly in North Carolina and partly in Tennessee, is a concrete ramp with spirals up to an observation tower above the surrounding forest. From there, providing weather conditions are favorable, the observer beholds an impressive panorama of mountains and valleys.Signs; Trail to Clingmen's Dome, II-A-Sign-4686, Physical Facilities - Minor Structures - Signs
