Pigeon Forge Ranks #4 on TripAdvisor's Top U.S. Destinations on the Rise

TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel website, announced their top 15 U.S. destinations on the rise for 2012 today. The rankings are comprised of destinations which have seen a remarkable increase in traveler reviews on TripAdvisor.com over the last year.

Coming in at #4 on the list was Pigeon Forge. Here's what TripAdvisor had to say about the "Forge":

Set against the misty blue backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Pigeon Forge is a gateway to 500 thousand acres of Appalachian wilderness. If hiking over 800 miles of mountain trails and camping in dense ancient forests is a step too far, travelers can head to Dollywood for rollercoasters and waterslides.

Also making the list, and ranking #13, was Asheville, North Carolina.

And, to visit the #1 destination on the rise, just hop on I-40 West and drive over to the Music City. Nashville is indeed a very fun city.

Great blog. I am a hiker myself and I have traveled some of the world. Some of my favorite locations include; Puerto Montt and Peru. Still trying to see some more interesting places. Any suggestions?

i am amazed that Pigeon Forge didn't make it to number 1! It is my favorite place to hang out! Well I guess I cannot speak for those who don't like the outdoors as much as I do.
