Introduction to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
Pigeon Forge, is located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in Sevier County, Tennessee. Pigeon Forge is a destination for vacationers and home to well over 5000 permanent residents. Pigeon Forge occupies a valley along the Little Pigeon river between Sevierville and Gatlinburg. It is surrounded by high ridges on three sides: Pine Mountain to the west, Shields Mountain to the east, and Cove Mountain to the south. The Little Pigeon river is the city's northern border with Sevierville, and a narrow gorge cut by the Little Pigeon between Cove Mountain and Shields Mountain provide the connection to Gatlinburg. Pigeon Forge is 45 minutes from Knoxville and next door to Sevierville, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Pigeon Forge was incorporated as a city in 1961. It takes its name from its history as the location of an iron forge established by pioneer Isaac Love in 1820 and by passenger pigeons, unfortunately now extinct, that flocked to the banks of the Little Pigeon River in earlier times. William Love built a tub mill along the river in 1830, and this mill is now a National Historic Site, remaining operational to this day.
