About

Visit Anakeesta with general admission, which includes unlimited access to the park for the day. Guests can ride either the Crystal Express gondola or the Ridge Rambler trucks to reach the summit.

Walk along the TreeTop SkyWalk, explore Vista Gardens with more than 3,000 plants and art installations, and try adventure courses designed for different age groups, including BirdVenture.

You can also visit the AnaVista Tower for 360° views of the surrounding mountains and downtown Gatlinburg. The park also features live entertainment, dining areas, shops, and mountain-view seating areas.

The Crystal Express is an all-glass gondola system with panoramic cabins featuring glass floors and walls. The ride to the summit takes about four minutes and travels more than 2,000 ft up the mountainside, reaching heights of nearly 80 ft above the ground at certain points along the route.
