This is an 8-mile loop of shops, studios, galleries, cafes, and lodging just outside downtown Gatlinburg. There is supposedly a trolley that you can take along the loop, stopping or walking to each shop, but we did not see it frequently enough, so we drove. Driving the loop is not bad if you don't want to go to all the shops. A list of shops and map is provided at most shops and tourist locations.

Our favorite was the ALEWINE POTTERY, which is worthy of another visit.

This was an experience no one should miss. Take a leisurely drive out Hwy 321 north. There are clumps of three to 10 shops together with a wide variety of items. Don't miss Candles by Dick and Marie – they sell candles of a wide variety of styles and scents. All the shopkeepers were very friendly. Another must see is Glassblower's Studio with Jack Hess. He creates 500 one-of-a-kind ornaments each year and signs/dates each one. I have started my collection.
