BLUF: A store featuring quality outdoor gear that is uniquely connected to a taproom…read more Generally the best stores in Bryson City are on Main Street, not Everett Street. Specifically, I am a big fan of the BC stores including BC Outdoors, BC Market on the Square and BC Bakery. Regarding Bryson City Outdoors, they are connected to a tap hours so gear on the left and beer on the right. What's not to love? If you don't love beer they have wine too! Much to my surprise, I skipped the beer and went for gear. After perusing fleece jackets, hiking shoes, headlamps and the such, I landed on a new pair of socks. Not that I needed anything but the employees were so kind I just had to support this local business somehow. Hmm, maybe I should have gotten a pint after all. Lots of good stuff and quality brands for the whole family - all nicely organized. Overall, a great place located on the corner of Main Street and Everett. Most definitely one of the best stores in town.

One night of our Tennessee vacation we did a downtown Gatlinburg shopping trip. Located in the…read moreVillage Shops, the day Hiker seemed to be the only hiking store in the tourist part of town. It is a small veteran owned business that has been serving the 11 million annual visitors to the Great Smoky Mountains for the past twenty years. My friend's hiking boots literally fell apart on the mountain so we stopped in to check out what kind of hiking boots they had. Prices seemed reasonable and they had a good selection. A salesperson spent some time talking to my friend and showing her the differences between the boots. In addition to hiking boots they carry anything a day hiker could need or want. They had a large selection of T-shirts, hiking gear including hats, ponchos which I really wish we had brought earlier when we got hit by a sudden rain storm, bug spray, sunblock, water bottles, backpacks, walking sticks, and anything else you could possibly want. If you forgot it, they got it! The Day Hiker is conveniently located a half mile from the entrance of Great Smoky Mountains National Park where some of the best hiking trails in the country await you.

Prices all varied so you could find something within budget. The coolest part was their knife maker who carved handles from antlers and bone came in with new knives and we got to see them all - amazing works of art and so many unique designs If you are looking for a new blade you'll find something here. Lots of pocket knives too. Easy parking and prices were fair.
