Bryson City is a stunning small mountain town in the North Carolina mountains and is known as the gateway to the Smoky Mountains National Park.
Many visitors come here to experience the magical Polar Express train ride, which is based on the popular book and movie of the same name. It’s certainly one of the best things to do in Bryson City in Fall and the holiday season!
We were fortunate to arrive on opening night of the Polar Express (early November), which meant we were just in time to catch the last of the Fall colors. It was past peak time, but still spectacular on the lower levels of the mountains.
We also had plenty of time to explore the town and all its amazing attractions. Fall colors, Christmas lights, and Santa, can you get a better family vacation?
If you’re planning on visiting Bryson City but are not sure what to do, don’t worry, as this guide will tell you all the best Bryson City attractions!
Since relocating back to the US in 2017, we’ve spent every Holiday season experiencing special Christmas events. It’s a wonderful way to create memories as a family, which lasts way longer than shiny, wrapped presents.
We always say make your travels an experience, especially during the Holiday Season. When you visit Bryson City, be sure to get your family photo in front of the Caboose in downtown.
Disclaimer: We visited in partnership with Explore Bryson City and used it as an opportunity to explore this outdoor adventure town and experience some of the fun things to do in Bryson City, NC. Though this was a partnership trip, all the opinions and attractions in this guide are our own opinion.
Where is Bryson City?
Bryson City is tucked into the North Carolina mountains and sits on the southern doorstep of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
It’s known as the Quiet Side to the Smokies. In case you didn’t know, the Great Smoky Mountains national park is the most visited in the USA. I’ll take this quiet side any time of the year!
If you’ve ever visited this ancient, forested USA treasure, you’ll understand why. The Smokies is one of my favorite areas in the country, and I always feel a sense of calm and connectedness whenever I wander any one of the nine hundred miles of trails it offers.
