Look Rock Observation Tower Details
The Look Rock Observation Tower offers 360-degree views of the Smokies, and is an amazing spot to view the fall foliage, or sunsets any time of year. On a clear day you can see 40 miles from here. On top of the tower is an air-quality monitoring station. Keep a close eye on your kids here since the walls of the observation platform are low, and keep ahold of your hat if you don't want to lose it in the stiff winds.
