Cocke County is an area rich in tradition and history, and yet offers a place for business and industry. We work hard to preserve our heritage and the natural beauty on the mountains and yet offer our children an excellent education, and our citizens good jobs and comfortable homes. Because of all this, we are a popular destination for retirees who want the conveniences of modern life and the unspoiled beauty of the mountains.

Made possible through the cooperative efforts of The Newport/Cocke County Tourism Council Heritage Committee and the sponsorship of local businesses, you can leisurely enjoy a self-guided auto tour to the area's past - on your own time, at your own pace.
