Your Own Skybridge Into the Trees

The Smokies' most famous attraction is a bridge with a queue. Excalibur guests skip it: the lodge's private skybridge walks you straight out into the canopy, then hands you off to a nature trail that winds the property with mountain views the whole way. Sunrise walks, dog walks, golden-hour photos — no tickets, no strangers, no closing time.

"Absolutely obsessed… I'd visit just to see the bridge alone."

• Custom 100-ft swinging bridge — exclusively for lodge guests
• Connects to the Summit Nature Trail — easy, family-friendly walking with mountain views
• Private entrance to the trail — no tickets, no strangers, no closing time
