Begin in Walland, TN where Foothills Parkway meets US 321 and travel South-West along the Parkway to US 129 (of Tail of The Dragon fame).
Scenery
Several pull-offs for sight-seeing along the Parkway offering views of the Great Smoky Mountains on one side and portions of the Tennessee Valley on the other.
Drive Enjoyment
Road quality is good. Some small patchwork areas, but nothing that should cause any major hazards. Several sweeping turns and a few sharp ones along the way.
Tourism Opportunities
No amenities along the Parkway or at the US 129 end. Stop for fuel and food in either Maryville or Walland before getting on the Parkway.
Enjoyable going up and gliding down. While compared to some of the other roads in the area, it's not much on twisties. It was a nice ride when connected to other roads. Make it part of your day. It's more of an appetizer than a main course.
