Bluff Mountain Helicopter Tour

An Exciting Flyover of the Chilhowee Mountain Range and Bluff Mountain

This scenic helicopter tour starts with a bird’s eye view of downtown Sevierville and the Tennessee Valley. As the flight progresses, you’ll travel over the foothills of the Smoky Mountains and the outskirts of Pigeon Forge and Waldens Creek with excellent views of the Smoky Mountain National Park. Your journey continues as you round the backside of Bluff Mountain, featuring over 6,000 acres of undeveloped land. While flying low over the treetops, you’ll cross the top of Bluff Mountain where the ridgeline drops away and views go from 100 feet to 80 miles in the blink of an eye. It truly is a sight to see! Heading back in, you’ll follow the sheer, glacier-carved rock cliff side of Bluff Mountain and Sugarloaf Mountain before soaring across the beautiful rolling foothills as you return to the heliport.
