Parrot Mountain & Gardens

You may think there's no way to see the rainforest in the heart of the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, but Parrot Mountain & Gardens is doing its part to bring a little piece of the rainforest to the USA! Parrot Mountain and Garden is dedicated to preserving and protecting the avian species of the rainforest in the hopes of preventing the extinctions of different species. At Parrot Mountain & Gardens, you'll stroll along pathways through lush gardens. In the Lory Aviary, you'll see Australian and Indonesian lorikeets flying all around you -- they'll even drink nectar right out of your hand!

Kids will love the special petting zoo, where they can pet baby birds and watch them being hand-fed. You can even take a Parrot Mountain bird home with you, if there are any available. Find that perfect souvenir in the unique home and garden gift shop and have your picture taken with a big, beautiful Macaw perched on your shoulder! You'll fall in love with this tropical, exotic environment and its inhabitants!
