Hiking, Biking & Waterfall Chasing

The entrance of Pisgah National Forest is just under a 15 minute drive from our cabin. There's miles and miles of hiking and mountain biking trails to be explored on, including several hikes that take you some wonderful waterfalls the forest has to offer. Drive all the way to the top of the mountain range from the entrance on 276 to access the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway. Along the parkway you great long range views of the forest from above, more waterfalls and incredible hiking trails along the way in both directions.

This is my favorite forest as they're plenty of easier hikes to wonderful waterfalls and the mountain bike trails are just flowy and fast! Several movies have been filmed here like Last of the Mohicans and Hunger Games to name a few.

How cool is this place?! Well...the water is usually really cold however it's a unique spot you can slide in the water on rock and into the pool of water at the bottom. It's like an all natural water park!
