I was looking around Youtube last night at places to go ziplining and was shocked at what I saw! A nudist family going on a zip line tour? This can’t be! It appeared as though a family of four had ventured out to the resort city of Pigeon Forge, Tn. looking for a place to fly through the air, each one, “naked as a jaybird”!
As I began to watch, I kept trying to figure out “are they really naked”? In public?? OMG (I thought to myself) , what’s the world coming to? Upon further examination and writing the website owner I was relieved to discover it was just a way to promote their new Pigeon Forge area zip line tour in the Smoky Mountains. It turns out that all “private parts” were covered by more than just the “censored” signs and it was all just a marketing tool!
I guess sometimes it takes more than SEO, backlinks and the whole ball o’ wax to keep ahead of the competition and these young entrepreneurs will do whatever it takes!
Naked Zip Line in the Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville, Tennessee area?

Every year at this time mother nature sets the stage and puts on one of the best shows in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville absolutely free! Just like clockwork, cars bearing license plates from all around the country start making their way to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to see this awesome display of natural colors. This area is perfect for the many people that enjoy viewing, photographing or just being out among the colorful backdrop of Autumn. With over 100 different species of trees living throughout these mountains, the array of colors is phenomenal!

Since the shows are free, what about seeing them like you never have before? I know a place conveniently located right across from Tanger Outlet Mall at Five Oaks that will let you see the mountains while taking a horseback ride or zip line tour. Adventure Park at Five Oaks sits on a gorgeous, seventy acre nature park complete with a mountain lake! While the riding stables have been there for quite a while, the zip lines are just several months old. If you’ve never tried zip-lining or horseback riding, this weekend would be a perfect time to start! Weather forecasters are saying that temps will be in the upper 70s to low 80s and no rain for the foreseeable future so gather up some family and friends and make your way to traffic light 13.1 in Sevierville for a day that will truly be; picture-perfect!
