A Thrilling Ride on the Rocky Top Mountain Coaster

Our adventure began with the exhilarating Rocky Top Mountain Coaster. Nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, this coaster is not just a ride; it’s an experience that promises fun for the entire family. As we arrived, the kids’ eyes widened with excitement at the sight of the coaster weaving through the lush landscape.

The coaster, with its twists, turns, and 360-degree spins, was a hit with everyone. My husband and I took turns riding with the kids, each of us enjoying the thrill of the ride and the breathtaking views of the Smokies. The coaster reaches speeds of up to 30 mph, and the kids loved the feeling of the wind rushing past as we zoomed down the track.

For those planning a visit, I recommend trying the ride at night. The coaster is beautifully lit, adding a magical touch to the experience. It’s a memory that will stay with us for a long time, and I can confidently say it’s a must-do for families visiting Pigeon Forge.

Exploring the Wonders of Rainforest Adventures

Next on our itinerary was the Rainforest Adventures Zoo, a place that promised to amaze and educate. As a former elementary school teacher, I always look for activities that combine fun with learning, and this zoo did not disappoint.

Home to over 100 species, the zoo offered a chance to get up close with exotic animals from around the world. The kids were particularly fascinated by the leaping lemurs and the giant porcupines. The petting zoo was a hit too, with sheep and goats that the kids could feed and interact with.

The zoo is open year-round, and its indoor exhibits are kept at a comfortable 76 degrees, making it a perfect stop regardless of the weather. It’s a great way to spend a few hours, and the kids left with a newfound appreciation for wildlife.

Cracking Codes at The Escape Game

Our final adventure was at The Escape Game Pigeon Forge, where we put our problem-solving skills to the test. We chose the “Gold Rush” challenge, and it was an hour filled with excitement and teamwork.

The game was like stepping into a real-life adventure movie, with puzzles and clues that required us to work together as a family. It was a fantastic way to bond, and the kids loved the sense of accomplishment when we finally cracked the code and “escaped.”

For families looking for a unique and engaging experience, The Escape Game is a perfect choice. It encourages communication and teamwork, and it’s a fun way to spend an hour. Plus, it’s a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of the usual tourist spots.

Overall, the Smoky Mountains Select Pass offered a perfect blend of adventure, education, and family bonding. It’s a trip that left us with cherished memories and a desire to return for more.
