The middle prong of the Little River flows through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park near Townsend, Tennessee. Straddling the border between North Carolina and Tennessee, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one of the largest protected areas in the Eastern United States and is world renowned for the diversity of its plants and animal life, the beauty of its ancient mountains, the quality of its remnants of Southern Appalachian Mountain culture, and the depth and integrity of its wilderness sanctuary.
