Smoke Rise is a census-designated place (CDP) in Blount County, Alabama, United States.

Smoke Rise lies east of Interstate 65 in western Blount County, with most homes sitting atop Bryant Mountain or in the valley below.

Residents founded the Smoke Rise Homeowners Association in the mid-1990s, but the community remains unincorporated despite occasional discussion of an incorporation vote.

Few businesses are in Smoke Rise's immediate vicinity, but many observers expect the impending construction of a new sewer system in western Blount County to fuel commercial growth.

The racial makeup of the CDP was 98.0% White, 0.5% Native American, 0.1% Asian, and 0.8% from two or more races.
