About the Run Dollywood Fall Race Weekend

The courses run through Dollywood's grounds and the resort areas surrounding it, so you are racing past rides and attractions rather than along a road somewhere nearby. The setting is the edge of the Smoky Mountains in fall, which means the foliage overhead is doing a lot of work. Entertainment and live music are stationed along the way.
