Cave Adventure

From The Great Smokies to The Grotto

Our Partnership

Go Below The Surface

Explore the natural cave system beneath Sojourn on a two-hour guided adventure through underground streams, large chambers, unique rock formations, and hidden geological features.

The Grotto is an active cave tour with uneven terrain, a short crawl section, and physically demanding areas. Equipment is provided, and guests should be comfortable walking, bending, and moving through natural cave conditions. The cave sits directly below the tiny-home community, so the adventure begins beneath the place you stay—an experience unlike any other in Sevierville.

How it unfolds

The day has a rhythm.

The Grotto is an active, guided experience: part walk, part geology lesson, part shared memory.

Before you go

Come curious. Come prepared.

The Grotto is a real cave environment, not a polished attraction built for a quick photo. A little preparation helps you stay present for the good stuff.

The tour includes uneven terrain, a short crawl section, and some physically demanding areas. Guests should be comfortable walking, bending, and moving through natural cave conditions.
