Great Smoky Mtns. Expwy.

Here is a YouTube video that virtually takes you along the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway…Enjoy the trip.

This video follows the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway (US 74/441) between Dillsboro and exit 74 (US 441 North – Gatlinburg/Great Smoky Mountains National Park). US 23/441 diverge at US 74. US 23 follows US 74 east toward Waynesville and Asheville; while US 441 follows US 74 west toward Gatlinburg, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Murphy (the county seat of Cherokee County, North Carolina), of which a portion of the Qualla Boundary — where the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians live — is in; however, this portion of Qualla is discontiguous from the portions that’re in Swain, Jackson, Haywood and Graham counties (NC).
