Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a national park of the United States in the southeast, with parts in North Carolina and Tennessee.

The border between the two states runs northeast to southwest through the center of the park. The Appalachian Trail passes through the center of the park on its route from Georgia to Maine. With 13 million visitors in 2023, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the most visited national park in the United States.
