Dollywood Theme ParkIs there a more fitting Mother's Day destination than a park built by everyone's pretend mom, Dolly Parton? Roller coasters, live music, craft demonstrations, and really good food. Spring is also a gorgeous time to visit. Theme Park · Full Day · Live Entertainment  6. Shopping at The IslandThe Island in Pigeon Forge is a lively outdoor shopping and entertainment district featuring boutiques, gift shops, restaurants, and a giant observation wheel. Stroll with Mom, grab a funnel cake, ride the wheel for panoramic mountain views, and let her pick out something she'd never buy with her own money. Shopping · Entertainment · Views  7. Titanic Museum AttractionOne of Pigeon Forge's most iconic landmarks, the Titanic Museum lets visitors step aboard a full-scale replica section of the ship's hull. Guests receive a boarding pass with a real passenger's name and discover their fate at the journey's end. It's a little…weird but still lots of fun. Especially for history nuts.

White Water Rafting on the Pigeon RiverFor the adventurous mom, a guided rafting trip on the Pigeon River offers Class III and IV rapids just a short drive from downtown Pigeon Forge. Several outfitters operate out of the area and provide all the gear. Adventure · Guided · Ages 8+ 9.

Anakeesta Treetop VillagePerched atop a mountain above downtown Gatlinburg (a quick drive from Pigeon Forge), Anakeesta features a stunning treetop walk, mountain views, gem mining, and charming village shops.
