Here at the original Cades Cove Stables (now located in Townsend), you will enjoy taking in the beautiful scenery and wildlife of the Great Smoky Mountains as a friendly and experienced guide leads you to Fall Branch Falls, a private, 110-foot waterfall.
We also offer half-hour carriage rides which take you to a cabin built in the 1800's and 2 hour hayrides, consisting of a bonfire, marshmallows, and cold drinks. Feel free to bring some hot dogs to roast as well!
We continue our family’s tradition of over 40 years experience at our new location in Townsend.
~ Rides are first come, first served, but if you have a group of 15 or more, please call ahead and let us know so we can ensure our ability to accommodate your group.
~The guide-led trail rides are ~50 minutes to an hour. On the ride, you will go by a beautiful walnut grove, a cabin built in the 1800's, and up to a private 110 ft. waterfall (only accessible by our horseback rides).
~ Hayrides are by reservation and require a minimum of 10 people. The hayride usually lasts about 2 hours.
