Breakfast at Paula Deen’s Family Kitchen
Paula Deen's Family Kitchen is the best place for any meal of the day, but breakfast there is absolutely top-notch. You can choose from a variety of breakfast meats, treats, and down-home dishes that are served family-style with unlimited refills of everything. The Country Scramble with fluffy eggs, crispy bacon, potatoes, onions, green peppers, and cheese smothered with sausage gravy is a popular choice, as well as the Apple Cinnamon French Toast!
A Smoky Mountain Hike
After fueling up at breakfast, it is time to explore! Whether you need a kid-friendly, short hike or are up for a more challenging trek to the top of Mount LeConte, you will discover plenty of hiking trails in the Smoky Mountains that provide incredible views and chances to see wildlife. Waterfall hikes such as Laurel Falls and Abrams Falls are great for families, and several nature trails begin at the Sugarlands Visitor Center that are accessible for all ages.
Picnic Lunch in Cades Cove
After that hike, you will be ready for lunch! Pack a picnic with you and eat surrounded by nature at the Cades Cove Picnic Area. You’ll find everything you need, such as picnic tables, charcoal grills, and bear-proof trash cans, at the beginning/end of the loop road, so you can enjoy your picnic before or after driving along the scenic Cades Cove Loop.
