The primary helipad is at the top of the hill. A secondary pad is located down lower. Smoky Mountain Helicopters is located at 1101 Winfield Dunn Parkway in Sevierville, TN which is on the main route into the Sevierville/Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area. The rides are $10 (just to get into the air for two minutes) to $350/person for an hour flight over the Great Smokey Mountain National Park - and in between for flyovers of Sevierville, Douglas Dam, or Pigeon Forge.

To answer the reviewer, no, a minimum number was not indicated for a flight. They were wondering if I wanted to go up on this windy overcast winter morning (umm, no).
