The Great Smoky Mountains are thought to be one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world, and to this day Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one of the most popular places to visit for mountain lovers. Both short and long hikes are found throughout the Great Smoky Mountains, drawing more than one million tourists and locals each year. Great Smoky Mountains National Park was first established in 1934 as a way of protecting it from logging companies which planned to continue logging the area. Recently, the United Nations has dubbed the park an International Biosphere Reserve. Both campground stays and Great Smoky Mountains cabin rentals are popular ways to stay in the park.
