Great Smoky Mountains National Park has announced that Smokemont Riding Stables, the only stable in North Carolina, is now offering horse-drawn wagon rides. The wagon rides were authorized by a new concession contract awarded earlier this year. "Although carriage rides are offered at Cades Cove Riding Stables and are very popular at that location, wagon rides are only available at Smokemont," said Ossoff. "This new service will provide visitors with a chance to experience this historic mode of horse-drawn transportation on the historic route of the Oconaluftee Turnpike, one of the earliest routes through the mountains," Ossoff continued.
The wagon can accommodate between 4-6 passengers and the fee for the one-half hour ride is $8 per person.
