The Fun Time Trolleys in Pigeon Forge are one of the very best ways to get around the Smokies! Stopping at all of the area’s best attractions and scenic spots, the trolleys provide an affordable alternative to driving. To help you figure out which routes to take during your vacation, Visit My Smokies has put together a convenient Pigeon Forge trolley map with everything you need to know:

North Parkway

If you want to see the best of Sevierville and Pigeon Forge, this trolley is for you! The North Parkway route begins at Patriot Park and continues all the way to the Governor’s Crossing Mall in Sevierville before heading back to the trolley station. Trolleys arrive every 20 minutes. Here are a few points of interest along the North Parkway:

Pigeon Forge Outlet Mall
Walden’s Landing
The Island
Pigeon Forge Welcome Center
Apple Barn Village
Walmart in Sevierville
Governor’s Crossing Mall

South Parkway

The South Parkway route starts at Patriot Park and travels north until reaching Traffic Light # 6, where the trolley turns west onto Pine Mountain Road. After driving to the Mainstay Suites on Pine Mountain Road, the trolley returns to the Parkway and heads south to Dixie Stampede and the campgrounds at the city limits. As you can see in our Pigeon Forge trolley map, after visiting the Mill Creek Road area, the trolley makes its way back to Patriot Park. Trolleys arrive every 20 minutes. Points of interest include:

Pigeon Forge Municipal Complex
Fantasy Golf
Big Top Arcade
Huck Finn’s Catfish
Doc’s Magic and Novelty Shop
Food City
Marble Slab Creamery
Dixie Stampede

Gatlinburg Welcome Center

This trolley is the perfect way to get to Gatlinburg! Hop on at Patriot Park and enjoy a nonstop ride to the Gatlinburg Welcome Center located on the Spur/Highway 411. From here, riders can pick up the purple line of the Gatlinburg Trolley System, which will take you to the Gatlinburg Mass Transit Center in the downtown area. The trolleys for the Gatlinburg Welcome Center route arrive every 30 minutes and are subject to the schedule of the Gatlinburg Trolley System.

Dollywood

We highly recommend taking the trolley to Dollywood! Instead of spending $15 on parking at the theme park ($18 for oversized vehicles), you can leave your car at Patriot Park for free and take the trolley for just a $2.50. Trolleys arrive every 15 minutes and start running 30 minutes before Dollywood opens and continue until everyone has been returned to the trolley station in the evening. The trolley will drop you off right at Dollywood’s main gate. For more budget friendly advice, check out these 15 Dollywood Tips and Tricks for Saving Money at the Amusement Park.

Dolly’s Splash Country

Just like at Dollywood, parking at Dolly’s Splash Country is also $15 per day, so taking the trolley to the water park is a no-brainer. Trolleys leave Patriot Park for Splash Country every 20 minutes. Riders will be dropped off at the front entrance to the water park.

Wears Valley

Wears Valley is one of the most scenic areas in the Smokies and is well worth a visit. As you can see on our Pigeon Forge trolley map, The Wears Valley trolley route begins at Patriot Park and travels through the Belz Mall area to Traffic Light #2 on the Parkway. Then, the trolley makes its way to Community Center Drive, Sand Pike Blvd., and Wears Valley Road to stop by area campgrounds and local businesses. The trolley continues west to the edge of Pigeon Forge before heading back to Patriot Park along the same route. Wears Valley trolleys arrive every 40 minutes.

Pigeon Forge Trolley Fares

The best part about the Pigeon Forge trolleys are how cheap they are! All of the routes are only $1 per ride, with the exception of the Dollywood and Dolly’s Splash Country routes. Children age 3 and under ride for free. If you’re going to be making heavy use of the trolley system, consider getting an All Day Pass wristband for $3 at the Fun Time Trolley Office. You can hop on the trolley at Patriot Park or at any of the trolley shelters or trolley bear signs located throughout the area.
