    August 26, 2025

    The Little Tennessee River, backed up by Fontana Dam, forms Fontana Lake, a long reservoir winding through the Smokies. Along the Shoreline Trail, you’ll catch glimpses of its calm waters framed by forested slopes, with plenty of opportunities to stop to appreciate its views.
