Welcome to American Hikes.
![]()

At the beginning of each season, we pause to reflect on the friends, guides, and guests who contributed to the previous seasons success. Without their support, we would not be looking ahead to the new season. This year is packed full of new tours, faces, and places. We hope you'll join us on the next step in our adventure.
This season marks our first of many years to come in the Smoky Mountains, and our enthusiasm is stronger than ever. Each year we are inspired to explore our nation's most treasured places in the least intrusive way possible, by foot. And with our Guided Nature Walks, History Hikes, and Seasonal/Featured tours, we are offering more opportunities to rediscover one of the most diverse ecosystems on planet than ever before.
As a company, we often focus on our staff, world-class guides, and travel partners as contributors to our success; all are so very important. Credit for the highlights of each year, however, really rest with our guests – for your sprit of discovery, and the generous feedback that helps us improve your experience. Each year new tours are offered in response to your requests!
This year we are excited to announce Ghosts & Legends of the Smokys, a twilight stroll into the legends, tall tales, and folklore surrounding the Smoky Mountains. Departing daily at 7 pm from several locations, the Ghosts & Legends walk offers a exciting opportunity to soak in the sunset, catch a glimpse of many of the parks nocturnal inhabitants, and catch goose bumps around every turn. For more information, please give us a call at (843) 330-9777.
The entire staff of American Hikes extends a thank-you for your support, enthusiasm and commitment. We look forward to continuing to offer our outstanding tours - to be shared by everyone who understands the joy of rediscovering America's National Parks … one step at a time.
