ROAD NEAR ELKMONT, ON THE SCENIC LOOP The Hundred-Mile Scenic Loop THE MOST POPULAR approach to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is over the 100-mile Scenic Loop, going either by way of Maryville or Sevierville. Leaving the city and crossing the Tennessee River over the bridge at the south end of Gay street, the Maryville route leads to the right over Tennessee Highway No. 33, an excellent paved road all the way to Maryville. Driving along this road, through one of Eastern Tennessee's leading agricultural centers, past magnificent farms and country homes, it is 16 miles to Maryville, the home of Maryville College, and, just outside that city, the great industrial plant of the Aluminum Company of America. The loop then consists of Highway No. 73 to Walland, Kinzel Springs, Townsend, Line Springs (near the highway). Wonderland Park, Elkmont, and Gatlinburg, skirting the park for a considerable distance, and passing through a beautiful portion of it. This road leads on up through Little River gorge and over ridges and mountains until, at Fighting Creek Gap, a point between Elkmont and Gatlinburg, there is a magnificent view of the valley at the foot of LeConte. The loop road continues on through the valley to Gatlinburg, a favorite starting point for those who wish to hike to the top of LeConte. Hotel facilities and other conveniences are provided at Gatlinburg, and thousands of visitors and tourists make this point their headquarters. From Gatlinburg the loop extends on over Highway No. 71 to Sevierville, a thriving little city in the heart of another of Eastern Tennessee's diversified farming sections and the home of Murphy Collegiate Institute. From Sevierville the loop road is Tennessee Highway No. 35, to Knoxville, along a route that has been used many years as an approach to the Smokies.
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

“The Great Smoky Mountains National Park” is a 32-page booklet produced by the Great Smoky Mountains Publishing Company, Inc. and edited by R. R. Stripling. The booklet contains many photographs by the Thompson Brothers of Knoxville, Tennessee. Published in 1930, the booklet was written before the establishment of the national park and promotes both the park and the city of Knoxville as “The Great Smoky Mountains City.” While many brochures feature photographs by James E. (Jim) Thompson (1880-1976), this booklet also includes images by his brother, Robin Thompson (1895-1977). Essays describe the geography, trees, and wildflowers of the Smokies. While the park lies almost equally in North Carolina and Tennessee, this brochure refers only to the Tennessee side of the park.
