Shuttle around SMNP

[Zynski10]

Here is an easy one, would of been alot easier if would just keep track of the shuttles I use.

I'm gonna need to schedule a shuttle to drive a group of us from Newfound Gap to Cosby campground, anyone got contacts that they could give up and recommend?

Thanks in advance!

It takes approx 30-45 minutes to get to NFG from Gatlinburg (depending on traffic) and about an hour and a half from Standing Bear Farm.

It will probably depend on whether you leave vehicle at NFG, Gatlinburg, or Cosby as to which will be more convenient for you. It may also depend on whether you are going to be staying somewhere local the night before your hike and/or the night after you finish. Some establishments arent too happy if you use their lodging services, but then choose someone else's shuttle service.

Depending on where all of you are coming from, time of arrival, and the route you prefer to hike, you could consider various options. (Not in any preferred order)

a) drive to Cosby, get shuttled to NFG, hike to Cosby
b) drive to Cosby, hike NFG, get shuttled to Cosby
c) drive to NFG, hike to Cosby, get shuttled to NFG
d) drive to NFG, get shuttled to Cosby, hike to NFG
e) Drive to Gatlinburg, hitch to NFG, hike to Cosby, get shuttled to Gatlinburg
f) Drive to Gatlinburg, get shuttled to Cosby, hike to NFG, hitch to Gatlinburg

Note: Hitch between NFG and Gatlinburg is fairly easy either direction.
