Things To Do
Linville Falls
Linville Falls is the most popular waterfall in the Blue Ridge Mountains because of its accessibility to the Blue Ridge Parkway. It is a spectacular three-tiered waterfall plunging into Linville Gorge, the “Grand Canyon of the Southern Appalachians.” The Falls Trail distance is 1.6 miles round trip and easy. The Gorge Trail distance is 1.4 miles round trip and strenuous. The Plunge Basin Trail is 1 mile round trip and moderate. Pets are welcome but must be on a leash.
Blue Ridge Parkway
You can easily see why it is called, "America's Favorite Drive."
Grandfather Mountain
Lots of stuff to do here. Try the mile high swinging bridge, or the wildlife habitats!

Kate is the Director of Economic Development and Tourism for this town. You can easily see how she loved this area the moment she first visited it in the late 60's. Its claim to fame is that it is the highest town eastern America.
Wilderness Run Alpine Coaster
