Tennessee Wildlife
You will encounter wildlife, and do not approach any animal. Bears do frequent Wears Valley and at times the downtown area. The further west you get from Wears Valley and there’s a chance of encountering deer, and beware of bucks. The male deer can be aggressive.

Bring comfortable sneakers
Highly recommend comfortable sneakers and in the winter the ground can get soggy, so possibly boats in the winter.
