Great Smoky Mtns. National Park Sights

Greenbrier Picnic Area Review

Greenbrier is the second-smallest picnic area in the park, with only 12 spaces near a shady, boulder-strewn creek. Its large pavilion seats 70 and can be reserved for $10. This picnic area off U.S. 321 is rarely busy. The Greenbrier access road is partly unpaved and is partly one-way. There is a ranger station here and restrooms with pit toilets but no running water. The Ramsey Cascades Trail is nearby, leading to the Ramsey waterfalls about 4 mi away.
