Driving Directions

The Park Grill restaurant is located next to the entrance of the Great Smoky Mountains national park. Use the information provided to plan your next visit. We’ve even added a few “local shortcuts” in for those who prefer to take the back roads! Drive safely, we want you to get here safely.

Directions to The Park Grill:

• On U.S. 441 South through Gatlinburg, we are 200 yards on the left before entering Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
• We are between lights 9 and 10, next to the Clarion Inn and across from the Days Inn.
• We are the beautiful large log building that is reminiscent of the grand lodges of America’s national parks.

Gatlinburg by-pass:

You may also take the by-pass around Gatlinburg when traffic is heavy.

• Just before entering Gatlinburg, exit the Spur (the road between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg – U.S. 441) at the sign on the right: “National Park via Gatlinburg By-Pass”
• Drive 4 miles over a scenic overlook.
• This will bring you out above Gatlinburg in the National Park. Just follow the signs to Gatlinburg – less than a mile.
• We are the second building on the right as you enter Gatlinburg.

Back road directions from I-40, Exit 407:

• Exit I-40 at Exit 407 and follow Hwy. 66 into Sevierville.
• Turn left in Sevierville onto Hwy. 411, the Dolly Parton Parkway.
• Drive east on Dolly Parton Parkway past Sevier County High School on your left.
• Turn right on Pittman Center Road (Hwy. 416) – right lane must turn right 1 mile past the high school .
• On Pittman Center Road, keep going straight, even when the signs say that 416 turns to the left. Continue on what has now become Birds Creek Road and later becomes Buckhorn Road as it winds through the scenic countryside. It will dead end at Hwy. 321.
• Turn right toward the west and follow Hwy. 321 into downtown Gatlinburg.
• Bear left on the Parkway (U.S. 441) at light 3 in downtown Gatlinburg and follow the Parkway to the Park Grill.

Presto! You’ve now missed miles of possible traffic tie-ups along the main highway through Sevierville and Pigeon Forge and enjoyed the countryside.
