3. Visit the Gatlinburg Space Needle
For an aerial view of the nightlife in Gatlinburg, you can take your date to the top of the Gatlinburg Space Needle. While it is amazing to see the mountain view from the observation tower during the day, a night visit is just as incredible. You won’t be able to miss the Space Needle, as it will be lit up standing high above downtown. Once you ride to the top, you can get a bird’s eye view of all the people buzzing through Gatlinburg.
4. Take a Ride on the Gatlinburg SkyLift
The Gatlinburg SkyLift has been taking people on rides up the mountain since 1954. In fact, it was the first four-season scenic chairlift in the South. Since then, it has become one of the landmarks of downtown Gatlinburg. You and your date can enjoy the romantic ride to the top of Crockett Mountain, and then spend the evening exploring the Gatlinburg SkyLift Park. On the SkyDeck, you can enjoy a drink with your sweetheart while you soak in the panoramic view of the Smokies from 1,800 feet above sea level. On your way back down the SkyLift, you can soak in the view of the bright lights of Gatlinburg.
