This is a beautiful State Park! It's worth every penny you have to pay for the entrance fee. There are trails for beginners all the way up to more advanced hikers. It was an easy walk to the top of Chimney Rock, where the flag was posted. You just walk down a tunnel to take the elevator and whoosh! you're at the top where you can shop at the gift store. It's a short walk and up a sturdy set of stairs to the flagpole. The view up there is fantastic! Of course, there are higher points to hike up to, but I'm a beginner. I was with my grandkids, so I highly recommend the Great Woodland Adventure Trail. So cute! Great photo opportunities with statues of Woodland animals. We went in the fall, and the colors of the trees were amazing.

Worth every penny plus some. We started with a trip on the 26-story chimney rock elevator where we hung out on that platform and area for a good bit. We then took a hike down the waterfall trail to take in that amazing view. Give yourself some time so that you can relax between hikes and stair climbs. Hint: You can take the stair climb down to the waterfall trail, but take the trail to the parking lot on your way back. It's a lot of stairs and the gradual grade of the trail is much easier on these old bones and lungs!

Just one of the most beautiful nature outing. Many lovely trails. On weekends, line for the elevator could be long, taking 30 to 60 minutes (consider walking up on a good day). Any day is a good day except if the day is too hot or too windy. Hickory Nut Fall may not always has a lot of water but is worthwhile. $17 pp entry.

I have now had the luxury of photographing two weddings and a proposal on Chimney Rock and I just don't think it is possible to take a bad photograph here! The park is well kept, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and a season pass is super inexpensive and a great resource for locals who visit often.
