Fontana encompasses one of the most remote sections of the Smokies where the waters of the Fontana and Cheoah lakes hem the park’s southwestern boundary west of Bryson City, North Carolina. Enjoy solitude, scenic cascades, spring wildflowers, fall leaf color, remnants of logging history, and access to several backcountry trails and campsites.
