Bucket-list guide to the Blue Ridge Parkway: my favorite, can’t-miss stops along (or right off) this epic US road-trip! 📌 𝘚𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘉𝘙𝘗 𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘥-𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘥𝘰𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘺 𝘢𝘥𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘭𝘴! ✨ Note: there’s obviously much more but I could only fit so many within one reel. Thus, I had to narrow it down to my all-time top recommendations (which was super hard to do). 🍁 Leaf peepers > these are FANTASTIC for chasing gorgeous fall colors soooon!! Starting from north to south… I absolutely encourage you to make these insanely amazing stops on route: ⛰️Shenandoah NP’s Skyline drive which is considered the gateway to the blue ridge parkway! One of my fave quick hikes to a stellar viewpoint here is Bearfence! But there are SO many to choose from! 🪨 Natural Bridge (at Milepost 61.6). 🌳 Mabry Mill (Milepost 176) 🌄Rough Ridge is a must! Especially at sunrise!! (Milepost 302.8) 💦 Linville Falls (Milepost 316.4) 🥾 Also nearby are these three beautiful hikes: •Upper Creek Falls •Grandfather Mountain •Hawksbill Mountain -because there’s so many of my favorites in this area of the blue ridge parkway, I recommend staying the night (or two) nearby! ⛰️Mt Mitchell (milepost 355.4) 🌄 Watch sunset at Craggy Pinnacle! (Milepost 364.1) 💦 Graveyard Fields (Milepost 418.8) 🥾Art Loeb / Black Balsam Knob Trail (milepost 420.2) 🌲Devil’s Courthouse (Milepost 422.4) 💦 And not too far off the parkway is also Looking Glass Falls, Sunburst Falls as well as sooo many more waterfalls!! ⛰️Richland Balsam (Milepost 431) and Waterrock Knob (Milepost 451.2) 🐴 Hemphill Bald (fantastic way to end your road-trip: ESPECIALLY horseback riding with Cataloochee Ranch) 🔚 and of course, you’ll finally reach: Great Smoky Mountains NP! ‼️Always remember to practice all the Leave No Trace Principles - help protect & preserve these places! 👉🏻To see more spots to explore in WNC > check out my past guide pinned to the top of my reels tab. 👉🏻 I also have content with much more info on each spot mentioned above (hiking distance and level, etc). See my “North Carolina” guide in my guides’ tab. #blueridgeparkway #roadtrippin #travelguide
