National Park Helicopter Tour

Undecided between the Wears Valley or Gatlinburg tours? Our National Park Tour offers the best of both worlds—and more. With over 40 years of experience flying in Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Scenic Helicopter Tours guarantees an unforgettable adventure. Taking off from historic Sevierville, you’ll be greeted by breathtaking views of the Smokies right away. Your journey continues over Pigeon Forge Parkway as you head south toward Gatlinburg, soaking in the beautiful sights along the way.

After passing Gatlinburg, the flight turns west, leaving civilization behind and entering the national park boundaries. Get your camera ready for incredible wildlife viewing from a true bird’s-eye perspective! Soar over stunning landscapes including Sugarland Valley, Fighting Creek Gap, and the Elkmont community within the park. As you depart Elkmont, enjoy panoramic views of Mount LeConte, Clingmans Dome, and Cove Mountain.

The tour continues along the Little River to Metcalf Bottoms and the peaceful, less developed areas of Wears Valley and Walden's Creek. Following the route of the Ridge Runner tour, you’ll cross Bluff Mountain and fly over the rolling foothills of Sevier County before returning to the heliport.
