Dollywood is a pretty sizable theme park and a bit hilly. You'll want to make sure you're wearing comfortable shoes to move around all day. Bonus if you don't mind them getting wet from a couple of water rides! If you don't like wet shoes, you can pack a set of flip flops for the water rides to be safe.

There's so much to see and do at Dollywood. Since you'll likely be there all day (or two), a backpack is probably one of the best bags to bring if you must bring something. Better than a purse, carrying a bag on your back will keep you hands-free and give you an extra place to store your beverage, keys and keepsakes.
