Fodor's Expert Review Junior Ranger Program
Great Smoky Mountains National Park, NC
Family
Children ages 5 to 12 can take part in these hands-on educational programs. Kids can pick up a Junior Ranger booklet at the Oconaluftee Visitor Center. Spring through fall the park offers many age-appropriate demonstrations, classes, and programs, such as Stream Splashin', Critters and Crawlies, and—our favorite—Whose Poop's on My Boots? For kids 13 and older (including adults), look for events in the park's Not-So-Junior-Ranger Program.
