Ober Mountain ~ So Much To Do ~ Year Round

WEBSITE: CLICK ON BOLD, GREEN PRINT

Ober Mountain in Gatlinburg, TN offers year round fun and excitement for the entire family.  The beauty is an added plus, and you can do all activities and adventures at one location.

                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Aerial Tramway

The Aerial Tramway to the top of Ober Mountain provides incredible views.  The operator of the tram keeps you entertained by telling you about area information. There’s no better way to get to the top and save the stress on your vehicle.

 

Alpine Slide

Your ride combines a Scenic Chairlift ride up the mountain with a fun-filled weaving, wandering, dipping descent on one of two 1800′ tracks through woods and ski trails.


SNOW TUBING

Snow tubing is a great winter activity for ages 3 and older.  It’s all the fun of sledding without the walk back up the hill!  … Our “Magic Carpet” (surface lift) takes care of that.

Skiing and Snowboarding

ON AVERAGE, THE SKI SLOPES OPEN IN EARLY TO MID DECEMBER AND CLOSE IN EARLY TO MID MARCH.  EXACT OPENING AND CLOSING DATES FOR THE SLOPES ARE DETERMINED BY MOTHER NATURE … NEVER THE SAME DATES FROM ONE SKI SEASON TO THE NEXT … AND USUALLY NOT PREDICTABLE UNTIL JUST DAYS IN ADVANCE.


Ice Skating

The indoor ice skating rink allows you to skate no matter what the weather is outside.  Skate year-round on Ober’s huge indoor ice arena. The 140′ X 75′ indoor ice arena is the centerpiece of Ober Gatlinburg’s enclosed mall.

Wildlife Encounter

Ober Mountain’s Wildlife Encounter is proud to share with visitors their black bear family, including Minnie and BJ, and their now grown 6 yr olds, Holly and Chief.

See River Otters playing at the underwater viewing area, beautiful Bobcats and Birds of Prey in an enclosed aviary. Eventually fox and other native species will also have homes at this facility.

Our  Nocturnal House includes various species of native Smokies wildlife such as raccoons, skunks, flying squirrels, turtles and snakes.

Scenic Chairlift

The scenic chairlift is your ride for the alpine slide and to the top of Mt. Harrison.

There are so many activities to keep every member of your group busy for an entire day or longer.  A collage of photos should give you a good idea.
