Hotels in Appalachian Mountains, United States

The Appalachian Mountains stretch from Alabama to Canada, with a climate that shifts from hot, humid summers (80°F/27°C) to snowy winters (20°F/-7°C). Famous for the 2,190-mile Appalachian Trail and the birthplace of bluegrass music in places like Bristol, you can hike to Clingmans Dome in the Great Smoky Mountains for 360-degree views during mild spring or crisp autumn, then in winter ski at Snowshoe Mountain in West Virginia. Summer rafting on the Gauley River and fall leaf peeping along the Blue Ridge Parkway round out your year-round adventure options.
