Devil's Courthouse - Blue Ridge Parkway

Devil’s Courthouse on the Blue Ridge Parkway (milepost 422.4) has astonishing panoramic views of North & South Carolina, Georgia & Tennessee from its peak at 5,720 feet.  The steep half mile trail might be a challenge but well worth the trek!  The rather sinister rock outcropping & its mountain cave has spawned legends that this is where the devil holds court.  Cherokee lore holds this is the home of the slant-eyed giant, Judaculla. Look carefully for the delicate & rare high-altitude vegetation.  (Romantic Asheville photo)
