The stone building to our right is the Clingmans Dome Visitor Contact Station. If you need the restroom or a snack before your journey, stop in here. The building dates back to the 1930s, when President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was in office. It was part of FDR’s New Deal plan, built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Note: This 0.7-mile-long tour covers the essentials of the Clingmans Dome in 30-40 Mins. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.
If we were making this hike, say, 500 million years ago, things would have looked a lot different. For one thing, there would be no dome here at all!
