Hiking, Climbing, camping, biking, kayaking
Little River Trading Company (LRTC) is one of the best outfitters in the Smokies. And here is just one reason that you need a good outfitter close by:
You have come to the Smokies, ready to spend several days in the mountains, hiking and camping – roughing it. You stop at a hotel for the evening before you start your adventure in the National Park. You are repacking your gear for the hundredth time to make sure you have everything you need. As you are going through the check list you find that you have left one of the sleeping pads at the house… 8 hours away. What do you do?
You pay a visit to the Little River Trading Company in Maryville, TN – right outside of Townsend and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. They will have what you need so that you can start your adventure on time and with the knowledge of knowing that you have bought a quality product from a company that knows their gear.
Little River Trading Company covers almost every outdoor adventure that you can think of. From kayaking to camping, mountain biking to hiking and climbing, they have gear and clothing for anything you have planned. When you walk in the front door of their retail location you will be in one of the best outdoor adventure clothing shops that you will ever find. At the back of the clothing area is their climbing shop and footwear. Next to the clothing is a camping and hiking shop carrying all the gear you might need for a day or a week or a month on the trail. Past that is the Cycology bike shop (opened in 2006), this is the premier mountain bike shop in the Smokies and though you can’t mountain in the Smokies, they good folks at Little River Trading Company can certainly set on the right path to finding trails to bike one.

Here is the best reason to go to Little River Trading Company: the staff. The guys and gals at LRTC use the gear that they sale. They are outdoor enthusiasts. They hike, they climb, they mountain bike. You are not going to big box store to buy something from someone that has never spent even on night outdoors, you are buying from someone that spends their free time enjoying those outdoor activities for which they sale the gear. They are experts and they can tell you what you actually need when you are backcountry camping or climbing because they have already been there and done that.Little River Trading Company
