Fall Colors at GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN

10/11/2016

 
GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN is a perfect place to see brilliant leaf colors!  It is one of the highest peaks on the Blue Ridge Parkway, about 70 miles from Asheville NC, and offers fabulous views, awesome alpine hikes, a wildlife habitat including bears, cougars, otters, deer and don’t forget the famous Mile High Swinging Bridge (Romantic Asheville photo).
 
The mountain attractions are operated by a non-profit foundation and one ticket price ($20 adults) includes everything: The backcountry of Grandfather is now a North Carolina State Park. Guests purchase tickets at the foot of the mountain and drive their own vehicles through the park, stopping along the way to enjoy a variety of activities.
 
Take an “ALL COLOR GUIDED WALK” (included with entry) on October 15, 16, 22, 23 to visit locations around the mountain showcasing spectacular fall colors.  Learn more about the trees & habitat from the knowledgeable guide.
