Check this drive out people. Look at doing 32 on the north side of Gatlinburg. Very tight fun road. Of course you can add or drop many of the road if time is an issue. great place to eat on 209 look fire station.

Bama, Speaking of roads over by the Little Switzerland loop we got into gravel, any chance it has since been paved?
197 south from 19E. it looks paved but the trees have leaves on google earth and the road disappears about where the gravel was. It will be a great drive if pavement has been completed down to I-26
