The U.S. state that is home to the Smoky Mountains, part of the Appalachian range, is Tennessee.

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, located along the border of Tennessee and North Carolina, is one of the most visited national parks in the United States. It is renowned for its stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and rich cultural history. The park features lush forests, mountain peaks, and a variety of recreational activities, including hiking, camping, and scenic drives. The Smoky Mountains are also famous for their misty, smoky appearance, which is caused by the natural moisture and vegetation in the area.
