A picture I found of the Firefly Show!
Every year in mid June an unbelievable site occurs in the Great Smoky Mountains.......the return of the Sychronous Fireflies. We made a point of taking the whole family......teenager Jake included (kicking and screaming). It is an amazing site and is a must have on your list of things to do in the Great Smoky Mountains. If I am not mistaken, there are only two places in the US or World that these fireflies show their stuff and the Smoky Mountains is one of them. The shuttle departs from the Sugarlands Visitors Center during these two weeks in June from 5pm til 9pm. It may take a while to get up to Elkmont and back down , but it is well worth the wait. I suggest to get there early and take a picnic dinner with something to occupy the kid's time while waiting on the light show to begin.....which is best between 9:45 to 10:30.
