Brigitte Grisanti Backcountry Camping

I have camp in many remote spots in the Smoky Mountains.I recommended following the advice from the park where to camp.Many people pitch a tent in very remote areas and run into trouble.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park requires a permit for all backcountry camping in the park. Backcountry permits are free and are available at the following locations:
• Oconaluftee Visitor Center
• Sugarlands Visitor Center
• Twentymile Ranger Station
