Rich Mountain Rd / Old Cades Cove Rd (Smoky Mountains) Drive Time Lapse 4K

Great view and music

Sold my jeep. I have a silverado 4x4 truck. Is the road real bad? My truck isn't lifted or mud tires. Think it would make it? Sits kinda high up on factory setting.

I would be cautious in rainy weather, although I think they just close the road if the weather is bad. Otherwise the road is quite good. Easily doable in a silverado.

I drove it in an 06 Explorer a few years back, no issue

[@legoindianajones9854]

I drove it in a BMW 128i. If a tiny convertible can then you’ll be just fine.

Roughly how far is this drive altogether?

[@roadtrippinwithtejas8838]

The Rich Mountain Rd (unpaved) is 7 miles, and the Old Cades Cove Rd (paved) is 5 miles. So about 12 miles overall.

@@roadtrippinwithtejas8838 looks like you could combine this drive with the other drive you did from the Heritage Center to Sugarlands?

[@roadtrippinwithtejas8838]

@@timflaherty2731 Yeah. The Rich Mountain Rd is one-way, so the drive is possible from Cades Cove to Townsend to Sugarlands.
